Selecting & Editing Parameters
Most SY85 edit screens contain several parameters that can be selected and
edited. In most cases you can simply operate the continuous slider immediately
below the parameter you want to edit on the display. Operating a slider auto-
matically moves the underline cursor to the corresponding parameter. In the
example below, for example (this is the VOICE EDIT mode Oscillator screen),
the [CS5] slider can be used to adjust the “Fine” parameter.
The parameters can also be edited by first moving the cursor to the required
parameter by pressing the corresponding function key ([F7], for example, would
select the “Rndm” parameter in the above display), and then by using either the
data entry dial or the [-1] and [+1] keys to adjust the parameter’s value.
In some special cases you’ll also use the function keys as parameter
“switches,” and the [SHIFT] key is sometimes called into play to access sec-
ondary functions. Such exceptions are described in the appropriate sections of
the manual.
