Note: START PRIORITY also applies to situations where you (try
to) start Arranger playback using the SYNC [START] function.
Touch Screen Beep
The E-80’s display generates a beep sound each time
you press a field. That way, you know when you have
selected parameter. You can switch this beep off if you
find it distracting.
Flashing Exit
Whenever you jump to a different page than the main
page, the [EXIT] starts flashing to signal that you can
press it to return to the main page. If you don’t need
that flashing pattern (and want the button to remain
lit), switch off the [FLASHING¥EXIT] button icon.
Flashing Metronome
While the Arranger is stopped, the [METRONOME] but-
ton flashes in red to indicate the current tempo. If you
don’t need that flashing pattern, switch off the
[FLASHING¥METRONOME] button icon.
Info
There may be times when you perform with a rented
E-80 (and use a memory card that contains all your set-
tings), in which case it is important to quickly confirm
whether the E-80 contains the correct wave expansion
board and which system version it uses. You can also
check the remaining capacity of the internal memory
and connected memory card:
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
(2) Press the [UTILITY] field, followed by the [INFO] field.
SRX Expansion Board—Displays the name of the
installed wave expansion board (if available).
Free Space Internal Memory—Informs you about the
remaining storage capacity of the internal memory.
Free Space Memory Card—Informs you about the
remaining storage capacity of the connected memory
card.
Version—Displays the version number of the E-80’s
operating system, along with its creation date and time.
(3) Press the [Back] field to return to the menu or the
[EXIT] button to return to the main page.
Initializing the E-80 (Factory Reset)
After working extensively with your E-80, you may
want to recall the original factory settings. Before
doing so, however, it would be a good idea to save your
own settings to a memory card (see p. 226) or to
archive them via USB (see p. 234).
Here is how to initialize your E-80:
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
(2) Press the [UTILITY] field, followed by the
[FACTORY¥RESET] field.
(3) Press the [EXECUTE] field to initialize the E-80 or
the [Back] field to return to the menu if you have
changed your mind. (You can also press the [EXIT]
button to return to the main page.)
The message “Operation Successful” informs you that
the E-80 has been initialized.
Note: This operation does not affect the data in the E-80’s
internal memory: they are not erased – the E-80 just doesn’t
use them anymore.
