Editing a Drum Voice
“Editing” refers to the process of creating a Voice by changing the parameters that make up the Voice. This can be done in
Voice Edit, a sub mode within the Voice mode. In this section, we’ll show you how to edit a Drum Voice. To enter the Drum
Voice Edit mode, press the [VOICE] button to enter the Voice mode, select a Drum Voice, then press the [EDIT] button.
Common Edit and Key Edit
Each Drum Voice can consist of up to 73 Drum Keys,
assigned to notes spread across the keyboard (C0 to C6).
There are two types of Drum Voice Edit displays: those for
Common Edit to edit the settings common to all keys, and
those for Key Edit to edit individual keys.
