Selecting Voices from the Dotted Buttons
The AR-80 has a wide variety of Voices from which you can choose — far greater than what is
immediately apparent from the front panel controls. You’ve already learned in the section above how
to select the different Voices that are available in the Voice Menu display of each panel Voice. The AR-
80 also has dotted buttons in each Voice section, giving you access to even more Voices — including
Voices you’ve created yourself (User Voices) by using the Voice Edit function. (See page 114.)
Each Voice section has one or two dotted buttons, found on the right side of each Voice section. These
dotted buttons function as “wild card” Voice Menu selectors; any internal or User Voices can be
selected from these buttons.
The dotted buttons have three basic uses:
• For playing any Voice of the Voice Menus from any of the keyboards or Pedalboard.
For example, you can play any Voice from the various Voice Menu pages (including User),
and not be limited to only the twelve Voice Menus available from the Upper keyboard panel
buttons.
• For having three different Voices from the same Voice Menu page available at the
same time.
For example, you can assign one of the Guitar Voices to a dotted button in the Upper
Keyboard Voice 1 section, a different Guitar Voice to the other dotted button, and select the
third Guitar Voice from the GUITAR button.
• For playing the User Voices of your own creation. (See page 114.)
To select Voices from the dotted buttons:
1. Press one of the dotted buttons in the desired Voice section.
2. Scroll through the various categories with the PAGE buttons.
