Roland RD-300SX Settings for Each Function Edit, Parameters That Can Be Set, How to Make Settings

Settings for Each Function ([EDIT])

The process of changing tone parameters to create the tones you like, and changing the settings for various functions is known as “editing.”

When [EDIT] is pressed and the indicator is lit, the RD-300SX switches to “Edit mode.”

You can save edited settings to Setups.

Edited settings are discarded when the RD-300SX’s power is turned off, so be sure that any settings you want to keep are saved to a Setup. For details, refer to “Storing Settings to Setups ([WRITE])” (p. 35). However, you cannot save System content to the Setups. If you want to save changes made to the system, perform the Write procedure separately (p. 37).
