6 Edit the value by using the [INC/YES], [DEC/
NO] buttons and the data dial.
7 Repeat steps 3 – 6 as desired.
8 Enter the desired name for the edited
Performance.
Use the Name display (page 143) of the Performance
Common Edit mode.
9 Store the edited Performance.
Press the [STORE] button to call up the Store window
(page 142) then store the edited Performance.
The edited Performance will be lost when selecting the
different Performance or turning the power off. Make sure to
store the Performance data to the internal memory by pressing
the [STORE] button before selecting a different Performance or
turning the power off.
n If desired, save the edited and stored Performances to a
USB storage device connected to the USB TO DEVICE
connector or a computer connected to the network to
which the MOTIF XS is also connected. Keep in mind that
edited Performance data is stored to internal User
memory (Flash ROM) and is stored even when turning the
power off. As such it is not necessary to save the data to
an external device; however, we still recommend that you
save or archive all important data to an external device.
Refer to page 278 for details.
