การตั้งค่า

1. การเปิดเครื่อง

The Behringer Swing can be powered via USB or an optional external power adapter. For USB power, connect the included USB cable from the Swing's USB port to a USB port on your computer or a powered USB hub.

For standalone operation or if your computer's USB port does not provide sufficient power, use a compatible DC 9V 0.5A (500mA) power supply with a 5.5mm x 2.1mm plug and center positive polarity. Connect the power supply to the DC IN port on the rear panel.

2. การเชื่อมต่อกับคอมพิวเตอร์ (USB MIDI)

Connect the USB cable from the Swing to your computer. The Swing is class-compliant and should be recognized automatically by Windows and macOS operating systems. No special drivers are typically required.

Once connected, your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) or music software should detect the Behringer Swing as a MIDI input device. Refer to your software's manual for instructions on enabling MIDI input devices.

3. Connecting to External MIDI Devices (5-pin DIN MIDI)

Use standard 5-pin DIN MIDI cables to connect the Swing to other MIDI-compatible hardware. The MIDI OUT port sends MIDI data from the Swing, while the MIDI IN port receives MIDI data.

• Connect Swing MIDI OUT to your synthesizer's MIDI IN.
• Connect your master keyboard's MIDI OUT to Swing MIDI IN if you wish to control the Swing's internal sequencer or arpeggiator from another device.

4. Sync Connections (3.5mm TRS)

The Swing features 3.5mm TRS Sync IN and OUT ports for synchronization with other analog gear. These ports allow for clock synchronization with devices that support analog sync pulses.

Operating the Behringer Swing

1. Basic Keyboard Operation

The 32 velocity-sensitive keys function as a standard MIDI keyboard controller. Pressing a key sends a MIDI note-on message, and releasing it sends a note-off message. The velocity of your key press determines the intensity of the MIDI note.

2. Arpeggiator Mode (ARP)

กดปุ่ม เออาร์พี button to activate the arpeggiator. The arpeggiator will play notes of a held chord sequentially based on the selected arpeggio mode (e.g., Up, Down, Up/Down, Random) and tempo.

• ถือ: Latches the currently held notes for continuous arpeggiation.
• OCT +/-: Adjusts the arpeggiator's octave range.

3. Sequencer Mode (SEQ)

กดปุ่ม ลำดับ button to enter sequencer mode. The Swing features a 64-step polyphonic sequencer.

• REC/TIE: Initiates recording or ties notes together.
• เล่น: Starts or stops sequence playback.
• REWIND/ERASE LAST/ALL: Rewinds the sequence or erases steps.
• ผนวก: Adds steps to the end of the sequence.

Use the keys to input notes into the sequencer. The แตะ button can be used for tap tempo or to trigger steps.

4. Tempo and Scale

ปรับแต่ง จังหวะ knob to control the speed of the arpeggiator and sequencer. The มาตราส่วน knob allows you to select different rhythmic divisions for the sequencer steps.

5. Pitch Bend and Modulation Strips

The Behringer Swing features touch-sensitive strips for Pitch Bend and Modulation. These allow for expressive control over your sounds. The Pitch Bend strip typically alters the pitch of notes, while the Modulation strip can be assigned to control various parameters within your software or hardware synthesizers.
