E-80 Music Workstation
Editing Music Assistant registrations
The E-80 also allows you to edit certain aspects of
existing Music Assistant registrations.
(1) Press the [MUSIC¥ASSISTANT] button.
The display now looks as follows:
(2) Select the Music Assistant entry you want to edit.
(3) Continue with “Renaming Music Assistant registra-
tions” or “Deleting Music Assistant entries”.
■Renaming Music Assistant registrations
• Press the [OPTIONS] field, followed by the [RENAME]
field if it does not yet “light”.
This function allows you to change (or supply) the
NAME, ARTIST and GENRE information for the
selected Music Assistant registration. “ARTIST” refers
to the person that made the song famous, while
“GENRE” describes the kind of music.
• Press the [NAME], [ARTIST] or [GENRE] field and enter
the desired characters.
See “Entering names” on p. 52. The [A/a] field allows
you to switch between uppercase and lowercase
characters.
The NAME you enter here only refers to the Music
Assistant entry and has no effect on the underlying
User Program whose name does not change.
• Press the [EXECUTE] field to confirm the new name.
■Deleting Music Assistant entries
The DELETE function allows you to dispose of the
selected Music Assistant registration. Again, this is a
virtual process, because the underlying User Program
does not disappear. (In fact, this operation only strips
the “MA” icon from the related User Program.)
• Select the Music Assistant entry you want to discard.
• Press the [DELETE] field. This operation cannot be
undone, which is why the following question is now
displayed:
[YES] deletes the Music Assistant entry.
[NO] leaves the entry intact and takes you back to the
list page.
[Back] leaves the file intact and takes you back to the
MUSIC ASSISTANT LIST page.
Saving a Music Assistant entry
The SAVE function on the MUSIC ASSISTANT LIST page
does two things at once:
• It gathers the settings of all parameters that make up
the E-80’s current registration and saves them.
• It creates a new User Program and gives it the same
name, or modifies the existing User Program to
which the Music Assistant entry is referring. (This
depends on the name you enter.)
Even though the display page is very similar to the
RENAME page (see above), it thus serves an altogether
different purpose.
This is useful for the following: suppose you started out
with a Music Assistant registration and then switched
on the UP2 part, changed the mixer settings and
selected a different Music Style. If you like the new ver-
sion better, you probably want to update the old ver-
sion. Hence the SAVE function.
(1) On the MUSIC ASSISTANT LIST page, press the
[SAVE] field.
(2) Press the [NAME], [ARTIST] or [GENRE] field and
enter the desired characters.
