■ Element Muting
Another necessity when editing a multi-element voice is the ability to turn individual elements off
or on. You might need to concentrate on the sound of a single element, for example, and need to
“mute” any other elements so you can hear only the target element while making subtle changes.
On the EX5 and EX7 individual element muting can be accomplished via BANK select keys [5]
through [8] (labelled “ELEMENT ON/OFF). The key indicators corresponding to elements which
are on will be lit, and will go out when the corresponding element is muted. Muted elements are
also indicated by a small element number on the left side of the edit display.
On all models, individual elements can also be turned on or off while editing by pressing the
correspondingly-numbered key on the numeric keypad while holding the [SHIFT] key.
■ Direct Edit Page Selection
Once you’ve entered the Voice Edit mode, you can directly select each edit page by one of the
following methods: use the [F1] key to select the edit pages in sequence, or select any individual
page by pressing the corresponding function key while holding the [SHIFT] key. On the EX5 and
EX7 all of the top-level edit pages can also be directly accessed via PROGRAM keys [1] through [8]
— corresponding to the COMMON, OSC, PITCH, FILTER, AMPLITUDE, LFO, CONTROL, and
EFFECT parameter pages, respectively (these are marked on the panel below the corresponding
keys.
■ Controller Knob Mode Switching
The Controller Knobs are conveniently set up to act as data entry controls for voice editing. A
small inverse number beside a parameter in the display indicates that the correspondingly-
numbered Controller Knob will adjust that parameter.
There will be cases, however, where you’ll want to try out the effect of the Controller Knobs as
they apply to the sound of the voice. Simply press the [KNOB MODE] key so that its indicator
lights to instantly switch the knobs back to sound control. When you’re ready to continue editing,
press the [KNOB MODE] key again so that its indicator goes out to reset the knobs to the data
entry mode.
