Edit Mode

1.To enter Edit Mode, press [EDIT].

2.Select a control to edit by touching, pressing, or manipulating the desired control (fader, pad, etc.). In the LCD, the name of the selected control will appear in the upper left corner, and the editable parameters will be shown below it.

3.In each page of Edit Mode:

Note: We recommend you set the KEYBOARD, pads, and Sequencer to transmit MIDI data over different channels. By default, they are all set to the Common Channel, which means your performance on one of those items could affect the performance of another. To set the channels, see the KEYBOARD, pads, and SEQUENCER parts of this EDIT MODE section.

Use the up/down CURSOR BUTTONS

to move through the parameters on the current page.

If there are multiple pages (indicated by "Pg1," "Pg2," etc.), use the left/right CURSOR BUTTONS to move between different pages.

Turn the VALUE DIAL to change the currently selected value/setting. Any value/setting is automatically selected; you do not have to press the VALUE DIAL to enter or select it.

4.To edit more controls, repeat Steps 2-3.

IMPORTANT: To store your new settings in the Program, hold [SHIFT] and press [STORE]. Without storing your edited settings, your changes will be lost if you load a new Program.

For an overview of the available parameters, see the EDIT MODE PARAMETERS table at the end of this manual.
