PLAYING THE XLK-B3

When you hook up the XLK-B3 to the XK-3 and set up as shown on Page 6, the manual on the XK-3 operates as the UPPER part, and that of the XLK-B3 as the LOWER Part.

The XK-3 can recall the Combination Preset for the LOWER Part (including the PEDAL), independently of the UPPER Part in the same BANK.

◆RECALL THE LOWER PRESET

UPPER:UPPER: LOWER:OWER: LightsLights Blinks SlowlyBlinks Slowly

The XK-3 recalls all Parts (UPPER, LOWER and PEDAL) combined, when you touch the Preset Keys, as the factory default.

The Preset Keys on the XLK-B3 are used to recall the LOWER (and the PEDAL) Preset independently.

For example, when you touch the Preset Key [E] of XLK-B3 during the Combination Preset of the XK-3 is in "F-D", it recalls the LOWR and the PEDAL Parts "F-E", while the UPPER remains in "F-D".

In such a case, the Preset LED's on the XK-3 light on, indicating the UPPER Parts, while those for indicating the LOWER and the PEDAL Parts blink slowly.

Touchouch

To recall the LOWER/PEDAL Presets only from the XLK-B3 and not from the XK-3, turn off the "PRESET - LINK L/P" function in the PRESET FUNCTION screen which appears with [MENU / EXIT] - [2]PRESET - [PAGE UP] - [PARAM RIGHT].

For details, please read the "PRESET" section of "Setting the Parameters" in the XK-3 Owner's Guide.

then Slowlythen Slowly

You can memorize the setting for only the LOWER and the PEDAL Parts for the XK-3 in the same BANK.

Touch and Holdouch and

Ex: Record to the Preset Key [G]

Hold Touch and hold the [REC/JUMP] button of the XK-3, and then touch the Preset Key [G] of the XLK-B3.

The following message is displayed in the XK-3 for a certain length of time:

Recording Preset...

When the recording is completed, the LED on the Preset Key [G] quickly blinks for a while and then slows down. Now the recorded Preset Key is automatically selected. And the screen returns to the previous display.

Note: Preset Key [B] can not be memorized in this way.

◆USING THE HEADPHONES

USB R POWER 207 108 H262 MHz

To use the headphones, connect the plug to the headphone jack. Sound is sent out from the LINE-OUT and the LESLIE 11-PIN, also when this jack is used.

The built-in LESLIE is only on L (the left), when the LESLIE SPEAKER is connected.

◆TRANSMITTING THE VELOCITY MESSAGES

ON Power On Hand Hand Touch and Holdouch and Hold

The XLK-B3 senses no velocity. The maximum value is transmitted in default. For sensing and sending the velocity, turn on the power pressing either of the Preset Keys on the left hand side of the XLK-B3.

Note: When the Velocity is On, the keys sound at a slightly deeper point in key travel.

Note: This function is not backed-up.

◆EXPRESSION PEDAL ASSIGNMENT

PAGE UPPER EXP- RESS SOURCE EXP-100 MON ▶127 BANK KEY NAME TONE PRESET 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ PARAM. VALUE BANK REC/JUMP MENU/EXIT PLAY PRESETS A# B

The Expression Pedal is used for expressing the volume and adding intonation to make your music more expressive.

To enable the Expression Pedal on the XPK-3, select the "EXP-100" for the Expression - Source.

To come to this mode:

Touch the [MENU/EXIT] button and display the MENU and select PAGE A by the [PAGE] button, and then touch the [4] CONTROL button, touch [PAGE UP] 3 times.

For details, please read the “CONTROL” section of “Setting the Parameters” in the XK-3 Owner’s Manual.

◆FOOT SWITCH ASSIGNMENT

PAGE UPPER PEDAL LOWER +FOOT 2 (EXP-100) MODE SW < LESLIE S/F ALT BANK KEY NAME TONE PRESET 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ PARAM. VALUE BANK REC/JUMP MENU/EXIT PLAY PRESETS A# B

The Foot Switch is used to operate and control the organ by your foot instead of pressing various switches by hand while playing. The initial factory assignment is “LESLIE FAST”.

To change the assignment of Foot Switch on XPK-3, use "FOOT 2(EXP-100) MODE".

To come to this mode:

Touch the [MENU/EXIT] button and display the MENU and select PAGE A by the [PAGE] button, and then touch the [4] CONTROL button, touch the [PAGE UP] button 4 times, and touch the [PARAM RIGHT] button 4 times.

◆LOAD DEFAULT VALUES

Pure technical line drawing of a mechanical component or bracket (no text or symbols)

If you play pedals with a staccato action or the leaf spring used on the pedal keyboard may happen to change its characteristic, it may cause "key bounce" on the key when you release it.

You can avoid it by adjusting the "Rebound Time".

To change the value, turn on the power while pressing the highest B and the key corresponding to its value. (See the left figure.)

Then, the LED on the left of the Expression Pedal blinks slowly the number of times indicating the value.

The setting range is 1 to 16 times (x) 1.22 milliseconds. 4 times (x) 1.22 milliseconds is the default.

Note: Too long rebound time causes delay in the sound.

You can change the MIDI channel of the Pedal Keyboard for special purposes.

To change the MIDI channel, turn on the power while pressing the highest C and the key corresponding to its value. (See the left figure.)

Then, the LED on the left of the Expression Pedal blinks fast the number of times indicating the value.

The setting range is Channel 1 to 16. Channel 3 is default.

To reset the XPK-3 to the initial status, turn on the power while pressing the highest A#, B and C.

Then, the LED on the left side of the Expression Pedal blinks three times, indicating the reset procedure.

In such cases as follows:

◆ The XK-3 does not turn on when the XLK-B3 is switched on.

- The power switch of the XK-3 turned off. >>

Turn on the power switch of the XK-3.

- Check the LED on the rear of XLK-B3. The LED lights during it is operating.

◆ The Manual Bass does not function on the XLK-B3 manual.

- The setting of the XK-3 is not correct. >>

Set the MIDI template correctly in the XK-3 "MIDI" function screen. (Page 8)
