Multitimbral operation means that Proteus 2000 can play more than one sound at the same time. Follow these instructions to access multiple presets on different MIDI channels simultaneously.
• To Set Up Proteus 2000 for Multitimbral Operation

1. Set the MIDI mode to “multi mode,” using the MIDI mode function in the Master menu.

2. Decide which MIDI channels you want the Proteus 2000 to receive (32 channels can be used simultaneously). If you are using 16 MIDI channels or less, just use the “A” MIDI port. Use both MIDI ports if you need more than 16 MIDI channels. You can turn any unused channels OFF using the MIDI Enable function in the Master menu.

3. Select the desired preset for each of the MIDI channels you want the Proteus 2000 to receive using the MIDI Channel/Preset selection screen

4. Proteus 2000 now responds multitimbrally on each of the MIDI channels you have specified. The volume and pan position parameters can be adjusted over MIDI (for each MIDI channel) or using the Cursor and Data Entry Control in the Preset Select screen.
