Basic Operation

This section explains all the basic operations that you can carry out when the instrument is in NORMAL mode. Every time you turn on your instrument, it sets to NORMAL mode.

To return the instrument to NORMAL mode, press the [MODE] button to the left of the display.

Selecting & playing Voices

The gk360 has 178 PCM voices including 1 percussion kits that you can select and play on the keyboard. After turning on, the gk360 sets to NORMAL/VOICE mode with the display showing a black arrow pointing to the NORMAL mode in the top left hand corner of the display and the VOICE 1 message at the center. In VOICE mode, you can select and play voices.

Play a single Voice

If you play on the keyboard after turning the instrument on, you will hear a piano sound (in this example, Voice 01, "Piano 1") play across the entire keyboard. Select a Voice with the [-] and [+] buttons In VOICE mode, the [-] and [+] buttons of the numeric keypad allow you to step through the individual Voices one by one. The [+] button selects in increasing numerical order while the [-] button selects in reverse order. Holding either button down scrolls rapidly forwards or backwards through all the voices. The selected voice number is shown in the bottom right hand corner of the display.

Select a Voice with the numeric keypad

Using the numeric keypad is the quickest way to go directly to the Voice you need, but you must know the exact number of the voice. The name and corresponding number of all the Voices in memory are silkscreened above the display on the right. You'll see that they start from number 01 through to number 178. Two-digit voice numbers are selected by entering the two digits in sequence. For example, to select Voice number 17 (Organ 1), press button [1] then button [7]. Three digit voice numbers are entered by first pressing the [VOICE]/[+100] button to specify the "hundreds", then pressing the remaining two digits in sequence.

[phone] - 2 3 + OFF ON

Dual voice (play two layered voices)

To play with the DUAL option (with two layered sounds), press the [DUAL] button. The message "VOICE 2" appears in the display as well as the voice number assigned to the layered section. If you play on the keyboard, you will hear two sounds for every note played. In our example, you will hear the Piano voice (01) together with Strings (49). In DUAL mode, whatever voice selection you make will always be assigned to the second voice. To return to NORMAL single voice play, press the [DUAL] button again.

DUAL ---- PIANO 1 ----> ----- SLOW STRINGS ---->

Keyboard percussion

To play percussive instruments on the keyboard, select the DrumKit from the DRUMKIT group. The DrumKit is recalled using exactly the same method used to recall a Voice; by inserting the corresponding number on the numeric keypad when the instrument is in NORMAL mode (not DUAL or SPLIT). To recall the STANDARD Drum Kit, simply input voice number 129.

[phone] - 0 3 + OFF ON

1 Press the [VOICE]/[+100] button to select the "hundreds"

2 Insert the two remaining digits; "2" then "9". With the DRUMKIT selected, the keyboard transform into a device which plays all the percussive sounds of a real drum kit. You can see what kind of percussive instrument each note plays by referring to the silkscreened markings on the rail under the keyboard

To return to normal playing, simply recall a Voice from any group except the Drum Kit group.

<----PERCUSSION Sound ---->

Note: To play all the sounds of a Drum Kit, it is important to remember that the keyboard must not be in Split or Dual mode. Be sure, therefore, that the left display arrow is pointing to the NORMAL function.

Split keyboard

To play on a split keyboard with one or two voices on the right hand side (UPPER keyboard) and one voice on the left (LOWER keyboard), press the [MODE] button as many times as necessary until the left display arrowhead points to the SPLIT function. The keyboard will be split into a Lower section and an Upper section. If you play on the keyboard, you will hear one sound (01: Piano 1) on the right hand side of the keyboard and another sound (49: Strings) on the left. You can check the sound assigned to the lower section. Play in Split mode with a Dual option on the Upper keyboard To play with two layered sounds on the Upper keyboard and one on the Lower, simply press the [DUAL] button while you are in SPLIT mode. If you want to change the voices on the Upper keyboard, proceed as already described on the previous pages for Single and Dual voice selection. To change the Voice of the Lower section, hold down the [MODE] button and proceed as already described to change the voice number.

To escape Split mode and return to a full NORMAL keyboard, press the [MODE] button once.

The MEMORY

So far, you have learn how to select single and combined Voices in Normal, Dual and Split modes using a number of panel operations. If, every time you want to create a preferred sound combination, you have to take several steps to arrive at your goal, you would ask yourself if there wasn't a quicker way of selecting what you want. The answer lies in the MEMORY-which offers a quick and simple method of recalling a panel situation at the touch of a single button. A MEMORYis simply a combination of voices and other panel settings (Voices, Track Volumes, Effect type and level, Style, Variation, Chord Recognition mode, Split Point, etc.). The gk360 contains six Memory which recall factory-set panel confi gurations, but you can also memorize your own combinations using the STORE MEMORY feature.

Take a quick look at the display, then press one of MEMORY buttons (M1 - M6); for example, press the [M1] button. The display shows the situation recalled by the MEMORY. If you were playing in NORMAL mode, after selecting the Performance you will find that the keyboard will be split and the mode will have changed to either Fingered, or One Finger, to enable the Styles. You will also see a change of Style number. For more information about how to recall Styles by selecting the MEMORY, refer to the section entitled "The Styles" on page 8)
2 Repeat the selections for all the other Performance buttons, observe the changes in the display and play on the keyboard to listen to the change of voices.

Balancing the Lower and Upper sections

If you are playing in Normal mode with Voices on a Split keyboard, you may at some stage want to adjust the volume of one section with respect to the other. Using the [MIXER] Volume controls, you will be able to balance your Upper and Lower voices to the levels required very easily. The MIXER consists of 5 twin buttons organized in two rows. The top row of buttons are [INCREASE VOLUME] controls while the bottom row are [DECREASE VOLUME] controls. When you are playing with voices only, voice balancing tasks require the use of the [UPPER] and [LOWER] controls only. The other three controls, (Drums, Bass and Accomp), are explained under Styles on page 12.

To increase the volume of, the Upper section, for example, press the top [INCREASE VOLUME] button and hold it down until you reach the Volume required. The display shows the Volume level of the Upper section.

To decrease the volume, press the bottom [DECREASE VOLUME] control. If the Upper section is playing with the DUAL effect, the [UPPER MIXER] controls adjust both voices at the same time.

Muting the sections

If you want to exclude a section (mute, or turn off), you can use the MIXER control buttons. Simply press both [INCREASE VOLUME] and [DECREASE VOLUME] buttons at the same time to mute the section required. For example, if you press both the top and bottom buttons of the [UPPER MIXER], the display will show UPPER OFF. To restore the volume to normal, press both the [INCREASE] and [DECREASE VOLUME] buttons again at the same time.

Instant Piano Voice

Regardless of the current situation, you can recall the Piano Voice instantly by pressing the [PIANO] button. Pressing this button returns the keyboard to NORMAL single voice play with the PIANO voice active across the entire keyboard. Press the [PIANO] button again to return to the previously selected situation.

PIANO METRONOME

The [PIANO] button always returns you to a single piano voice playing across the full keyboard. You may use the PIANO button as a "return to start" button whenever you wish to have only one sound active across all 61 keys.

Add Pitch Bend to your playing

While you play, you can add Pitch Bend to your keyboard sounds by using the [PITCH BEND] buttons located to the left of the control panel. You can bend the pitch 2 semitones above or below normal using these controls. Hold down the top [PITCH BEND] button to bend the notes up. Hold down the bottom [PITCH BEND] button to bend the notes down. The pitch returns to normal when you release the button. Pitch Bend is a "glide" (or glissato) effect which simulates the effect heard in certain instruments (trombone, guitar, violin, etc.).

PITCH UP PITCH DOWN PITCH BEND

Play with Effects or bypass them

While you play, one or both effects (Reverb and/or Chorus) will be shown active by the small black indicator arrow at the top of the display. This means that the current Performance is being processed by one or both effect types. By means of the [REVERB] and [CHORUS] buttons on the extreme right hand side of the control panel, you can turn the effect on or off at will. When the small black display arrow is shown pointing to the REVERB and/or CHORUS indicator, the current voices are playing with the effects. When one or both indicators are off, the respective effect is bypassed and the sounds play with no effect.

DSP

To restore the effect, press the same button again. 8 Reverbs and 8 Chorus (Modulation effects) are available to choose from and both effects units have an independent effect level control. For further details refer to the section entitled "The Digital Effects" on page 14.

Touch Response

The [TOUCH] button is a general function which affects the keyboard globally. The gk360 keyboard is Velocity Sensitive; in other words, the harder you play on the keys, the louder the sound becomes, as occurs in an acoustic piano. If you prefer to play on the keyboard without TOUCH RESPONSE, you can disable the function by pressing the [TOUCH] button. The small black arrow pointing to the Touch indicator will turn off. Press the [TOUCH] button again to restore TOUCH RESPONSE to the keyboard.

TOUCH

The Octave - transposer

Whether you are playing with Styles or just Voices in single, dual or split mode, you can octave-shift the current Voice down one octave (maximum) in real time. The current Voice is shown in the display by the message VOICE 1, VOICE 2 or LOWER (when the [SPLIT/LOWER] button is held down).

1 Press the [OCTAVE-] button

A small black display arrow points to the OCTAVE – function on the right to show that the current voice is set to play one octave lower than normal. In the example, Voice 1 is shown set to play an octave lower

2 To cancel the octave transposition, press the [OCTAVE-and +] button again. The small black OCTAVE – display indicator turns off

Styles - Auto-Accompaniment

What are the Styles?

Styles are a collection of musical patterns representing many types of music, ranging from rock and pop to traditional and ethnic music. The gk360 contains 96 different auto-accompaniment Styles that can be used to provide fully-orchestrated arrangements. The sophisticated Auto Accompaniment system can provide automated bass and chord backing that is perfectly matched to the selected accompaniment Style. The Styles a formed by 5 sections, or tracks, that generate the automatic arrangements: Drums, Bass and 3 Accomp, and an additional two tracks, Upper and Lower, for the keyboard sounds. The automatic arrangements are triggered by playing chords (fingered or one-finger) on the lower part of the keyboard below the split point.

Selecting Style Mode

To select the Styles, you must set the gk360 to STYLE mode

1 Press the [STYLE] button

At the center of the display, the message STYLE is shown to show that the instrument is ready to accept a STYLE selection

To enable the Style auto-accompaniments, you must select one of the two chord recognition modes (ONE FINGER or FINGERED).

2 Press the [ SINGLE TOUCH PLAY] button

Pressing this button activates the KEY START function automatically and enables the Style auto-accompaniments by recalling one of the two chord recognition modes (ONE FINGER or FINGERED). The left display arrowhead points to FINGERED or ONE FINGER. The display example shows FINGERED selected. The FINGERED and ONE FINGER chord recognition modes are explained in detail further ahead.

VOICE STYLE

Note: When SINGLE TOUCH PLAY is on, the sounds memorized in the Style Performance are assigned to all the tracks. Selecting a Style changes the sounds of the accompaniment sections (Drums, Bass, Accomp) as well as the keyboard sections (Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower). When SINGLE TOUCH PLAY is off, selecting a Style changes the sounds of the accompaniment sections only.

You can select a Style in three different ways: Use the [-] and [+] buttons to select a Style In STYLE mode, the [-] and [+] buttons of the numeric keypad step through the individual Styles one by one.

3 Press the [+] button to select the Styles in increasing numerical order
4 Press the [–] button to select the Styles in reverse order. Holding the button down scrolls rapidly forwards or backwards through all the Styles. The selected Style number is shown at the center of the display

Use the numeric keypad to select a Style

Using the numeric keypad is the quickest way to go directly to the Style you need, but first, you must know the exact number of the Style. The name and corresponding number of all the Styles in memory are silkscreened above the display on the left. You'll see that they are organized in Groups (8 BEAT, 16 BEAT, ROCK, etc.) and numbered from 01 through to 96. Select the Style you want by entering the corresponding two digits in sequence. For example, to select Style number 17 (SoftRock), press button [1] then [7].

[phone] - 0 + OFF ON

Selecting the Styles by recalling the Memory

Another quick way of selecting the Styles is by selecting the Performances, but this means that you have to remember which Style is memorized in the Memory. If you use the Performances to select Styles, remember to turn off the S.T. PLAY button. You can also memorize your preferred Styles to these buttons with Store Memory. This argument is explained in detail further ahead on page 14.

Playing the Styles

1 Once you have selected a Style, press the [START/STOP] button. You'll hear the Drums accompaniment track start to play.
2 Play a note or chord on the left part of the keyboard below note F#3 to trigger the automatic accompaniments

An automatic accompaniment will start to play, generated by the Style sections: Drums, Bass and Accomp. As you change chord from Major to minor or seventh, etc., you will notice a change of style pattern. Each time you change key, for example, from C to F, the Style pattern will transpose automatically. The names of the recognized chords are displayed in the left hand corner of the display. For example, if you play the chord of C, the display will show the large letter "C". If you play a chord not recognized by the instrument's chord recognition system, the current pattern will not change until you play a recognized chord. Also shown in the display are 4 round Beat pattern indicators which show the current beat of the bar as you play your style. The first bar of every two-bar cycle shows all 4 indicators, while every other beat shown one small indicator. The first beat of the second bar is shown with the larger beat indicator. To play your Style using the automatic functions (Var, Key Start, Intro, Fill, Ending), see the section entitled "Using the Style Auto functions" further ahead.

3 Press the [START/STOP] button if you want to stop the Style.

About the Chord Recognition Modes

The gk360 allows you to choose between two different Chord recognition modes: FINGERED and ONE FINGER. The chords that you play (Fingered or One Finger type) must be played on the lower part of the keyboard dedicated to the Auto Bass Chords (from note C2 up to and including note F#3).

FINGERED mode requires that you press at least 3 notes for a chord to be recognized.

ONE FINGER mode requires that you press only one note for a Major chord to be recognized. Other chords require more notes

1 If a Chord recognition mode isn't selected, press the [MODE] button as many times as necessary until the left display arrowhead points to either FINGERED or ONE FINGER
2 Press the [START/STOP] button to start the current Style
3 If you select FINGERED, play a chord of at least 3 notes on the Auto Bass Chord section of the keyboard to trigger the auto-accompaniments

If you select ONE FINGER, play one note on the Auto Bass Chord section of the keyboard to trigger the Major chord of the auto-accompaniments. Other chords using the "One finger" method involves the use of two or three fingers. In the Appendix you'll find useful reference charts for Fingered and One Finger chords.

MODE START/STOP SYNCRO INTRO/END FILL 1 FILL 2 NORMAL VARIATION FINGERED

ONE FINGER

Note: If you change Style while the rhythms are playing, the current Tempo rests unchanged. The memorized Style Tempo is recalled only when the Style is not playing.

Using the Style Auto functions

The Styles provide a wide variety of automatic functions that make the gk360 very easy to play. The functions are found in the ACCOMPANIMENT CONTROL section.

Select the Fill In and change Style Variation

Each Style has two accompaniment patterns, NORMAL and VARIATION, which you can select at any time before or after starting to play the Styles by pressing the corresponding button. The LED status on the FILL 1 or FILL 2 buttons tells you which Style pattern is active for play, Normal or Variation. When you press the [FILL 1/NORMAL] or the [FILL 2/VAR] button during playback, the current pattern will be interrupted by an appropriate Fill In, or "break", then proceed with the same pattern or variation, depending on which button you press. The LED of the button pressed will turn on while the LED of the other button will turn off.

START/STOP SYNCRO INTRO/END FILL 1 FILL 2 NORMAL VARIATION FILL 1 FILL 2 NORMAL VARIATION

Start the Style accompaniments with Key Start

The KEY START function allows you to synchronize the start of your Style with a note or chord pressed on the keyboard without using the Start/Stop button. When you press the [SYNCRO] button, the display shows 4 fl ashing black dots (beat pattern indicators) after the word TEMPO to indicate the synchro start stand-by. Now, if you play a note or chord on the lower part of the keyboard, the Style pattern starts automatically.

Start the Style with an Intro pattern

Before starting the Style, press the [INTRO] button to put the instrument into intro-stand-by mode. The LED of the current Style pattern (Fill1/Normal or Fill2/Var) starts to fl ash to indicate that the INTRO has been preset. Now press the [START/STOP] button and play a note or chord on the lower part of the keyboard. The Style starts with an introductory pattern then proceeds with the selected auto-accompaniment (Normal or Variation). Stop the Style with an Ending phrase You can stop your Style automatically with a professionally-programmed ending pattern without using the Start/Stop button. While the Style is playing, simply press the [ENDING] button. The Style auto-accompaniment will stop automatically with an Ending phrase.

Balancing the Style accompaniment tracks with the Mixer

Playing with Styles, you can adjust the volume of one section with respect to the others using the [MIXER] Volume controls. You will be able to balance all the Style sections; Drums, Bass, Accomp as well as the Lower and Upper keyboard sections. How the MIXER controls are organized is explained on page 6. In Style mode, to increase the volume of the Bass track, for example, press the top [INCREASE VOLUME] button and hold it down until you reach the Volume required. The display shows the Volume level of the section being controlled, in this case the Bass section. To decrease the volume, press the bottom [DECREASE VOLUME] control.

INCREASE VO- LUME MIXER DRUMS BASS ACC LOWER UPPER DECREASE VO- LUME

Note: The volumes of the three Accompaniment tracks are controlled simultaneously by the [ACCOMP] Volume buttons.

Muting the Style tracks

If you want to exclude a section (mute, or turn off), simply press both [INCREASE VOLUME] and [DECREASE VOLUME] buttons at the same time to mute the section required. For example, to play your Upper and Lower voices with the BASS accompaniment only, mute the DRUMS and ACCOMP tracks. The display will show OFF for the respective section. To restore the volume to normal, press both the [INCREASE] and [DECREASE VOLUME] buttons again at the same time.

MUTE TRACKS DRUMS BASS ACC LOWER UPPER MIXER

Using the Single Touch Play settings in Style mode

The SINGLE TOUCH PLAY settings are a quick and easy way of reconfi guring the voices of the UPPER and LOWER sections of a Style by pressing only one button while you are playing, without having to stop to change voices manually. Playing the Styles with the [SINGLE TOUCH PLAY] button on, each Style you select recalls a panel confi guration (voices and volume settings) for the accompaniment sections (Drums, Bass, Accomp) as well as for the Upper and Lower sections. The S.T. PLAY settings are recalled using the fi rst four buttons of the MEMORY section [M1-M4]. The gk360 provides a total of 96 x 4 = 384 different panel confi gurations.

Make sure that one of the two chord recognition modes is selected.
3 Start the Style using the methods already described (Key Start, Intro, etc.)
4 While you are playing the Style, press one of the SINGLE TOUCH PLAY buttons ([M1], [M2], [M3] or [M4]). The display will show the current Single Touch Play setting. You'll hear a change of voice configuration and the Style Variation may also change
5 Repeat the selection procedure of the SINGLE TOUCH PLAY settings after changing other Styles
On the following page there are instructions on how to store your preferred settings into the 6 memories.

Note: The S.T. PLAY settings change the configuration of the UPPER and LOWER sections only.

Note: When the [S.T. PLAY] button is on (display indicator on), the two MEMORY buttons [M5] and [M6] are disabled for Performance selection.

Digital Effects

The gk360 contains a Digital multi-effects processor which adds realism to your playing. The Digital Signal Processor (DSP) consists of one unit which process the Performances with Reverb and Chorus effects. The buttons which control the Digital Effect are DSP button. The DSP indicators When the DSP display indicators are on, all the voices of the current Performance will play with their programmed effects. When one or both the corresponding display indicators are off, the sounds will play "dry" (without effects).

The Memory buttons and Store Memory

You have seen that the Single Touch Play settings recall factory-set confi gurations for the current Style when the [S.T. PLAY] button is on. You have also seen that, when S.T.PLAY is off, (display indicator off), the 6 buttons of the PERFORMANCE section recall factory-set panel confi gurations (see page 5), including Voices, Volumes, Style, Variation, Split Point, etc..

How to Store a Memory

If you don't want to use the factory Performance settings, you can memorize your own panel configurations to the PERFORMANCE buttons. This very useful feature allows you to store up to 6 preferred panel configurations, including Style, Variation and other selections, which you can then recall at the touch of a single button. To memorize a Performance, the first thing to do is to modify one of the factory set situations. For example, if you select STYLE number 45 (Swing) with Single Touch Play on, the voices recalled for the Upper and Lower sections will be Organ 2 and Strings respectively. You only need to change one aspect of any factory setting to be able to save the new setting as a new Performance. In our example, let's change the voice assigned to the Voice 1 section.

1 Press the [VOICE/SONG/STYLE] button, press the [S.T.PLAY] button, then select Style n. 49 (BasicTrio)
2 Press the [VOICE/SONG/STYLE] button and select a different Voice by using either the [+] and [-] buttons, or the numeric keypad (voice 27, Jazz Guitar, for this example).
3 Disable the Single Touch Play function (press the [S.T.PLAY])
4 Hold down the [STORE] button and simultaneously press one of the PERFORMANCE buttons [M1] - [M6].

For example, if you press [M5]. The small black arrowhead at the bottom of the display will show the current Performance. Whatever information was previously stored in the selected button will be erased by the new data

5 At this point, you can check if your new Performance has been stored. Changing the panel situation (for example, select a Voice or Style), then press the MEMORY button that you used to store your Performance in point 4 above.

The Sequencer

Your gk360 contains a very simple and easy to use sequencer which records whatever you play and plays back the recorded sequence just as you played it. You can record in Voice mode or Style mode with one or two melody tracks. In playback, you can play along with the recorded sequence using different voices to those used in the Melody tracks. The following example explains how to record a sequence using the Accompaniments.

1 Set the instrument for Style play and select a Style. (Follow the instructions explained on page 9

2 Press the [REC] button.

the four Beat indicators in the display will flash

3 If you want to start the recording of the Style with an introduction, press the [INTRO] button to preset the Intro

4 The sequencer Start to record the notes you play

The Key Start function triggers the Style accompaniment patterns when you play a chord on the keyboard below the split point. If you play a note or chord on the upper part of the keyboard, only the drum track will be triggered.

5 While playing, use the Fills, change the Variation, change Voices for the Upper and Lower sections, activate/deactivate Dual mode, etc.. Whatever you do will be captured by the sequencer

6 Stop the recording with the [REC] button. You can also stop the recording with an ending by press the [ENDING] button.
