    Can , please, someone explain to me what are the Green keyswhitches?
    I know the orange are the articulations and the blue keys is the actual range of the instrument.
    But what about the green ones?
    Thanks

    They're not green, they're cyan. And the other ones aren't orange but faint red. :D

    You can assign key colors in a script. They have whatever color the pogrammer decided for them to have. Maybe they are on the fly key switches?

    The script clearly says:

    Code:
    	set_key_color($key_switch_1, $KEY_COLOR_[B]RED[/B])
    	set_key_color($key_switch_2, $KEY_COLOR_RED)
    	set_key_color($key_switch_3, $KEY_COLOR_RED)
    	set_key_color($key_switch_4, $KEY_COLOR_RED)
    	set_key_color($key_switch_5, $KEY_COLOR_RED)
    	set_key_color($key_switch_6, $KEY_COLOR_RED)
    
    	if ($fade_button = 1)
    		set_key_color($key_switch_1 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_[B]CYAN[/B])
    		set_key_color($key_switch_2 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_CYAN)
    		set_key_color($key_switch_3 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_CYAN)
    		set_key_color($key_switch_4 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_CYAN)
    		set_key_color($key_switch_5 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_CYAN)
    		set_key_color($key_switch_6 + $DKS_TRANSPOSE, $KEY_COLOR_CYAN)
    	end if

    ;)

    Yes,

    They are dynamic keyswitches.

    Static keyswitches when activated affect notes played after keyswitch activation. Dynamic keyswitches affect notes currently playing. Usually the dynamic ones are 1 octave down from the static ones and apply to the orchestral instruments at least.
