Learning to Play by Playing (For Synthesizer Novices)
E-17
Example: To save the performance to User Bank 2,
Performance 1
The edits pending indicator ( ! ) and edits saved indicator
( * ) are also used in other modes where data is edited and
saved (tones, Step Sequencer, etc.)
When you want to perform the song “Aura Lee”, simply recall
User Performance 2-1 to instantly configure the Synthesizer
with the four tones you registered above. Try recalling a
different Performance number and then recall User
Performance 2-1.
In addition to keyboard tones, you also can register a variety
of other settings as Performance data. An effective way to use
banks would be as song-specific banks. For example, Bank 2
for “Aura Lee”, Bank 3 for another song, etc. For more
information, see “Using the Performance Mode” on page
E-62.
