15. GLOBAL EDIT ENVIRONMENT
The Global edit environment is the place where you can set
most of the Pa50SD global functions, i.e. functions overrid-
ing any operating mode. This edit environment overlaps the
current operating mode (Style, Song Play, Song, Backing
Sequence).
THE WRITE WINDOW
Open this window by pressing the WRITE button while one
of the Global pages is in the display. Here, you can save vari-
ous global settings. Among the global settings saved with this

Song Play mode, plus the Global Protect parameter of the
Card mode. The Split Point is also saved here.
While this page is on the display, press ENTER twice. The
parameters are saved to the Flash-ROM, and will stay in
memory even when turning the instrument off.
