The Front
The front of the NanoPiano has two indicator LEDs and five
knobs. Taking them from left to right...
POWER: This indicator will glow whenever the NanoPiano is
hooked up to a live electrical outlet.
MIDI: This indicator will flash whenever the NanoPiano is either
receiving or sending MIDI data. (You'll notice that it lights up
when the unit is playing its onboard demo sequence.)
VOLUME: This knob controls the stereo output volume. All the
way to the left is off. All the way to the right is full on. For
maximum audio quality I recommend turning the volume knob
to full on, and lowering the NanoPiano's signal to proper levels
at your mixer or amp input.
EFFECT: Although many NanoPiano programs have more than
one effect built into them, each program has one specific effect
that can be adjusted in real time from this knob. Turning it all the
way to the left lowers the specified effect to nothing, while
turning it all the way to the right takes the effect to its maximum
programmed level. (The other effects in any given program are
also adjustable, but only via MIDI.)
CHANNEL: This knob sets which MIDI channel the NanoPiano
will respond to, from 1 to 16. (It also has an impact on the
function of the MIDI indicator LED, which will only flash if there
is MIDI data coming in over the selected channel. Data coming
in over other channels will be ignored.)
CATEGORY: This knob has no printed name on the front panel
— there wasn't room — but its function should be rapidly
apparent once you start playing around with it. The 256
programs in the NanoPiano are organized in 16 sets of 16
programs each. This is the knob you turn to select which set the
PROGRAM knob will be selecting from.
PROGRAM: You'll turn this one a lot. It selects which program
in a given category will play in response to incoming MIDI data.
