Selecting and Creating Tones
E-36
You can used the nine sliders (
5
) to adjust the volume
balance between the multiple sounds (see below) that make
up a tone, and to make simple adjustments in some DSP
parameters.
When you select a tone, the button (
1
) that corresponds to
its category lights, and the sliders (
5
) and the three buttons
(
2
) are assigned functions that correspond to the tone
category.
In the Performance Mode or Step Sequencer Mode, you
can use the
1
buttons (HEX LAYER, etc.) to edit tones
with the sliders without changing to another mode.
Adjustment with the sliders is not possible for PCM tones.
For more information about slider functions, see page E-49
for the Step Sequencer Mode and page E-67 for the Mixer
Mode.

sounding note, arpeggio (page E-40), or phrase (page E-44)
will be sustained.

HOLD again will cause its light to go out,
indicating that hold is turned off.
You can use the

TRANSPOSE and OCTAVE (–, +)
buttons to change the pitch of the keyboard notes in
semitone or octave steps.
For information about fine tuning the pitch in hertz steps
