Layering

2004-04-18 by Keith

Hi,

I hope this hasn't been answered before, if so I apologise, but I have
searched the archives and haven't found the answer.  I have also been
reading the group for three months while waiting for the DTX III to
come out in the UK.

Many of the built in sounds are supposed to be layered, but whenever I
select a layered sound in voice edit mode and then look at the second
layer it is always the same as it was before I changed the first
layer, ie usually 00 - NoAssign.  For example, Snare 6 is MapleA50,
but if I select this then the second layer doesn't chenge from what it
was before.  Where is the second layer of the MapleA50?  Are there
really four possible layers per voice where the inital sounds are
layered?

I also notice that in the manual when a layered voice is used the
second layer is listed as undefined which seems strange.  Eg Kit 1 has
a Loosy snare which is listed as layered in the voice list, but the
second layer is NoAssign in the kit list.

This is based on the DTX III, but I assume is the same as the DTX II.

Thanks,

Keith.
