About the E (Edit) mark
Whenever any setting is being made or an
operational change is taking place, the “ ”(Edit)
mark appears in the upper left corner of the screen,
next to the part number. This lets you confirm that
the currently selected Performance is being edited
and has not yet been stored.
The edited settings will be retained even after
entering into Performance Play mode. However,
once you select another Performance the settings are
lost. Therefore if you return to the Performance Edit
mode before selecting another Performance, the “
mark is displayed.
The “ ” mark also displays in the Performance
Play mode screen.
About the Compare function
While in Performance Edit mode, you can listen to
and compare both the original unedited sound and
the edited sound.
1Press the EDIT key while in the Performance Edit
screen.
The “ ” (Edit) mark which is displayed in the
upper left corner of the screen (next to the part
number) changes into a “ ” (Compare), and you
can hear the original sound before editing (i.e.,
Compare status).
When in Compare status, the cursor will not appear
in the screen and Function keys F1~F8 and Knobs
1~6 cannot be used for editing operations.
2Press EDIT once more to exit the Compare status
and return to the previous edit in progress.
Voice Editing From the Performance Mode
There may be times when you’ll want to actually
edit a voice being used in the Performance mode
rather than just the Performance parameters. You
can jump directly to the Voice Edit mode from the
Performance or Performance Edit mode by pressing
the [VOICE] key while holding the
[PERFORMANCE] key. First the Performance mode
display will appear with the [F1] and [F2] function
keys assigned to part selection.
Use the [F1] and [F2] keys to select the part
corresponding to the voice you want to edit, then
press the [EDIT] key to go to the Voice Edit mode.
Once the voice has been edited as required, save the
edited data (pege 48), then press the
[PERFORMANCE] key to return to the
Performance mode.
The voice type cannot be changed when this method
is used to access the Voice Edit mode. Use the
normal Voice Edit mode—accessed via the Voice
mode—if you need to change the voice type.
When you edit the voice with the Layer Switch
(page 166) turned on, the voices from the other
parts with the Layer Switch turned on will be
produced. When you edit the voice with the Layer
Switch turned off, only the currently editing voice
will be produced.
[F1]: COM (Common)
The Common parameter settings are equally applied to
all of the 16 parts of the performance. There are five
types of menus available.
[F4]: PARAM (Parameters)
[F5]: ARP (Arpeggiator)
[F6]: EFCT (Effect)
[F7]: CTRL (Controllers)
[F8]: NAME (Performance Name)
[F4]: PARAM (Parameters)
These parameters are related to the overall volume of
the parts, as well as the keyboard/tone generator
settings.
