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.

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.
