Operation

Basic operation

1) As described in "Connections and controls of the KM-2" (p.2), connect your turntable(s) or CD player(s) to CH1 and CH2. Set the input select switches (1, 2) to the appropriate position for the devices that are connected to channels 1 and 2.

2) If you are using headphones for listening, connect your headphones to the front panel PHONES jack (F5).
In this explanation we will assume that you are monitoring through headphones.
3) Turn on the POWER switch (R9). It will take up to 10 seconds for the KM-2 system to begin operating and be ready to use. The system has finished starting up when the BPM display stops rotating.
4) Make sure that the monitor select switches (11) are set to MASTER, and use the MONITOR knob (10) to adjust the volume of the headphones.

5) Here's how to monitor the sound of CH1 in the headphones. Set the CH1 fader (7) to approximately 50 70% . If the PEAK LED lights, the input is too loud. Rotate the TRIM knob (3) toward the left until the LED no longer lights. At this time, set X-FADE (29) to the CH1 (left) position.

6) Use the touch panel (30) to control the effect.

The effect section of the KM-2 lets you control the sound by moving across the X-axis (horizontal) and Y-axis (vertical) of the touch panel. For details on which effect is in what number, and the parameters that are controlled by the X-axis and Y-axis, refer to p.4 "Effect program list."

Here's how to apply an effect to the CH1 signal.

1 Set FX INSERT (12) to CH1.
2 For this example, rotate the effect program knob (20) to select program number 1 of the FILTER group.
3 Make sure that the FX ON/OFF switch (25) is lit.
4 Rotate the FX DEPTH knob (9) all the way to the right.
5 Touch the touch panel (30), and the effect will be applied.
6 Rotate the effect program knob (20) to change the program.

About the BPM function

What is BPM?

BPM stands for Beats Per Minute, and indicates the tempo of the song in terms of the number of beats (quarter notes) that occur in one minute.

If BPM = 120 , there will be 120 beats in one minute of the song, meaning that each beat is 0.5 seconds long. Higher BPM values mean that the tempo is faster.

Detecting the BPM

There are two ways to set the BPM: auto BPM detection, or BPM tap input.

Auto BPM

1) Use the FX INSERT switch (12) to select the channel (CH1 or CH2) into which you are inputting the song whose BPM you wish to detect.
2) Simultaneously press the ADJUST and keys (18). This will cause the BPM to be detected automatically and displayed in the BPM indicator (17).
3) Press or to end detection and finalize the BPM.

If you operate the FX INSERT switch (12) or press and simultaneously while auto BPM detection is occurring, auto BPM detection will be cancelled.
Auto BPM detection will not function if the FX INSERT (12) is set to MASTER.

☆ It may not be possible to correctly detect the BPM of songs with complex drum phrases. In such cases, use TAP to input the BPM.
The AUTO BPM detection range is 80-160.

Using TAP to input the BPM

Press the TAP key (19) twice or more in time with the beat of the song. When you do so, that tempo will be displayed in the BPM indicator (17).
BPM input via TAP can be performed even if the FX INSERT switch (12) is set to MASTER.

Fine adjustment of BPM

After the BPM has been detected or set, you can use the ADJUST

switches (18) to make fine adjustments to the BPM setting.

When you switch the setting of the FX INSERT switch (12), the previous BPM detection value for that channel will be displayed.
When performing BPM detection for the first time, the default value will be BPM = 120

BPM effects

If an effect program of the BPM FX group is selected, you can apply an effect that is synchronized to the BPM.

For example with the BPM FX-1 program BPM DELAY2, touching the touch panel (30) in the 3-5 area of the horizontal axis will cause the delay length to be half of the BPM. For details on other BPM effects, refer to p.4 "Effect program list."

If you use the TAP key (19) to input the BPM, the BPM value will be applied to the effect immediately.
If you use auto BPM, the BPM value will be applied to the effect when you press ADJUST (18) or .

About the SAMPLE/PLAY effects

The sampling function of the KM-2 lets you store four different six-second samples.

Recording and playback when a SAMPLE/PLAY effect program is selected

You can record or play back samples when a SAMPLE/PLAY effect program is selected. Playback speed and reverse-playback etc. can be controlled from the touch panel.

Playback control will differ depending on the effect program. Refer to p.4 "Effect program list."

4) When you press the touch panel (30), playback will occur according to the location you touched.
5) You can use the FX DEPTH knob (9) to adjust the volume of the playback. When the knob is in the center position, the sample playback sound will be added to the channel input sound in a 1:1 ratio. When the knob is at the maximum position, only the sample will be heard during playback, and the channel input sound will not be heard.

Recording procedure

1) Use the FX INSERT switch (12) to select whether to record the sound of CH1, CH2, or MASTER.
2) Use the effect program knob (20) to select a SAMPLE/PLAY program. For this example, select SAMPLE/PLAY-1.
3) Use the SAMPLE BANK keys 1-4 (26) to select the sample bank 1-4 into which you will record.
4) Press the REC/STOP key (27) to start recording. Recording will end when you press the REC/STOP key once again (or when the maximum recording time has elapsed).
During recording, the REC/STOP key (27) LED will light.
5) Press the touch panel (30), and the recorded phrase will play. The way in which the phrase plays will differ depending on the program. Refer to p.4 "Effect program list."

Recording and playback when a non-SAMPLE/PLAY effect program is selected

You can record and play back phrases (basic playback) even when a non-SAMPLE/PLAY effect program is selected. Playback and recording is not possible when FX is off.

Playback procedure

1) Use the effect program knob (20) to select an effect program from other than the SAMPLE/PLAY group.
2) When you press a SAMPLE BANK key 1-4 (26), the corresponding sample will play back as long as you continue holding that key. However, the sample will play at normal speed, and will loop (play repeatedly) at the volume at which it was recorded.
By operating the touch panel (30) while you play the sample, you can apply an effect to the sample playback.
The playback sound will be mixed into the channel that is selected by the FX INSERT switch (12).

If you record using a non-SAMPLE/PLAY program, the effect sound as controlled by the touch panel will also be recorded.

2) Select other than SAMPLE/ PLAY

4) Select the BANK to record

Saving a sample - "WRITE"

Phrases that you record using the REC/STOP key are only written temporarily into the internal memory of the KM-2, and will be lost when the power is turned off. If you wish to keep them, you must perform the WRITE operation. Conversely, phrases you have already saved using WRITE will not be erased by additional recording as long as you do not perform the WRITE operation again.

1) Press and hold the WRITE key (28) for two seconds. The WRITE LED will begin blinking, and the KM-2 will be in write-ready mode.

2) Press the SAMPLE BANK key(s) 1-4 (26) that you wish to save. (The SAMPLE BANK you pressed will blink.) You may select two or more banks to write.
If you press the TAP key (19) or the FX ON/OFF switch (25) at this point, the WRITE operation will be cancelled.
3) Press the WRITE key (28) once again, and writing will begin. Writing will require a maximum of 20 seconds per bank. While writing is being performed, the level meter will indicate the progress. When writing is completed, the WRITE key (28) LED will go dark.
Never turn off the power during the writing process. Doing so will cause the data to be lost.

About the program map keys

Your favorite effect programs can be assigned to the program MAP 1-8 keys for quick access. The program map keys store not only the effect program number, but also the HOLD ON/OFF status, the HOLD position, and other data listed below.

Data stored in a program MAP

• Effect program group number
  HOLD ON/OFF status and location (coordinates)
• For the BPM FX group, the BPM value that was displayed when you stored the MAP
• For the SAMPLE/PLAY group, the SAMPLE BANK number used (the SAMPLE BANK 1-4 that was selected when you stored the memory will be remembered)

Storing to a MAP memory

1) Press the MAP number 1-8 (23) in which you wish to store.
2) Use the effect program knob (20) to select the effect program that you wish to store. If you wish to store with HOLD ON, select the HOLD ON (LED lit) state, and touch the touch panel (30) at the desired coordinates.
3) Press and hold the currently-lit program map key (23) for two seconds. When the MAP LED has blinked three times, the data has been stored.
- At this time, the value in the effect number display will also blink.

Calibrating the crossfader

On the KM-2 you can adjust the point at which CH 1 and CH 2 of the crossfader begin to change. (With the factory settings, the change will begin with minimal movement.)

1) Turn the power off.
2) While holding down the WRITE key (28) and the REC/STOP key (27), turn the power on. When you do so, the BPM display will show "CAL," indicating that you are in Calibration mode.
3) Now if you move the crossfader (29), the LEDs of SAMPLE BANK keys 1-4 (26) will light accordingly. The point at which the light changes from 1 2 is the point at which the crossfader currently starts changing from CH 1 to CH 2. The point at which the light changes from 4 3 is the point at which the crossfader currently starts changing from CH 2 to CH 1.
4) First, move the crossfader to the location at which you want begin changing from CH 1 → CH 2.
5) When you press the REC/STOP key (27), the switching point will be updated.
6) Repeat steps 4 and 5 to set the CH 2 CH 1 point.
7) When you press the WRITE key (28), the data for the specified points will be stored in internal memory, and you will return to normal operating mode.

The switching points cannot be set to a location where BANK LED 2 and 3 are lit simultaneously.
The minimum switching point is approximately 3.0mm from the left or the right. It is not possible to set the switching point closer to the left or right edge. (If you perform step 5 with the crossfader moved all the way to left or right, the switching point will automatically be set to the minimum location.)
The calibration data is preserved even when the power is turned off.
