Selecting Single Sounds

To assign a Sound to a keyboard track (Upper 1, Upper 2 or Lower) in Style/Preset mode, you must first select the track with the SELECT buttons (Upper 2, Upper 1; Lower) located to the right of the display. The SELECT buttons enable the dis- played keyboard tracks for a Sound change. A selected track is shown flashing and only one section at a time can be in an enabled state. A selected track (flashing) is not necessarily active for play.

To assign a Sound to any track, including one not displayed and regardless of the current mode, you must first enter Edit Preset mode (press the Preset button) to enter the ProgramChange page. The procedure is explained in detail on page 11.
