Your new SL
Thank you very much for choosing the SL. You have obtained a state-of-the-art professional
instrument made by the renowned manufacturer Studiologic. The SL is easy to operate, thanks to
the large colour display, the main Encoder with navigation controls plus built in click and it oers
a perfect keyboard touch. We recommend that you read the entire manual carefully to take full
advantage of all the functions of your SL. This manual is intended to be an easy, fast, Quick Guide
that should help the user to understand the instrument and all mind related controls, rather than
a general description of the complete structure and detailed editing, also made more exible and
user’s friendly by the computer Editor that will be downloadable from our ocial sites.
Let us start with an overview of the functions of the SL.
KeyboardThe SL Controllers oer the latest innovative technology by
Fatar: the sophisticated Hammer Action Keyboard with 3
contacts per key and Aftertouch. Therefore the SL Controllers
are very portable, yet it oers the realistic grand piano touch
for which Fatar is famous.
ZonesThe keyboard can be divided into 4 programmable zones.
You can dene each zone‘s keyboard range and select at
which velocity level it will send its MIDI data, together with a
wide range of settings and controls.
Each zone can be assigned to a dierent port and the new
programmable Sticks can control dierent MIDI parameters
for each zone.

Insert the adapter plug into the back socket of the instrument
and turn the instrument on, by moving the related switch to
the 1 position (1=ON, 0= OFF).

Be sure that the adapter is the original one (included in the
box) or a suitable/compatible one with the correct voltage
and power (9V – 1A, positive pin + at centre).

You can connect compatible Switch pedals (for the related
functions) to Pedal 1 and 2, a dedicated Volume/Expression
Pedal to the Pedal 3 input and one of the compatible pedals
in the special multi plug 4.
The MIDI connections allow to control any external Midi Device and/or connect the SL to other external MIDI devices, for
all related data transmission (notes, program changes etc.)
The USB (Universal Serial Buss) also allows the connection to
external devices (i.e. Computers) to updates the rmware or
estabilish a MIDI connection (IN/OUT).
When the SL is connected to a computer via USB, you can also
use the SL Editor to set all SL parameters in a very fast and
direct way, including controls not avaiable in the internal SL
editing structure (i.e.: the Keyboard Balance function, that allows to change the velocity sensitivity of each individual key
and balance black and white keys, with a single control.

A Zone can be have 3 states: ON/OFF/Standby.
To enable or disable a Zone press IN and set it ON or OFF; if a
Zone is OFF the display will only show a colored background.
Clicking the Encoder, you can set the Zone in Standby and
the display will show it in grey.
(The picture shows Zone 1 ON, Zone 2 Standby, Zones 3 and

Please note that you can also set all parameters of a disabled
Zone (in the Program) in order to be ready to enable it at any
time, with all pre-programmed parameters for that particular
Program.
Programmable Sticks
The 3 Sticks on the left side of the instruments are programmable real-time controls:
• Stick 1 has springs in both the vertical and horizontal axes
and it goes back to zero automatically; a typical setting for
such kind of control is for Pitch Bending functions;
• Stick 2 has a spring only on the horizontal axis and it goes
back to center on that side; a typical setting for such king of
control is for Modulation or Filter cuto, when controlling
any kind of virtual Synthesizer;
• Stick 3 is totally free and it keeps the position where you
move it, on both X and Y axes, allowing to control any parameter that needs to stay stable where it is set.
How to program the sticks
Once you have selected a Zone, by clicking the IN button you
enter in EDIT MODE and you can scroll with the Encoder’s vertical switches thru all the programming pages, until you nd
