The MD-1600’s custom tone synthesizer lets you create up to 32 of your own original tones. To create a “user” tone, you simply select one of the keyboard’s preset tones, change its parameters, then store the new tone in any memory location from 168–199. You can select and use a user tone the same as a pre- set tone.
