NOTE

Changing the main tone, variation tone or advanced tone selection causes DSP* to switch automatically to the default setting for the newly selected tone. This causes any notes that are sounding at the time of the change to be interrupted momentarily. The DSP* will be set to the default setting for the newly selected tone when the note resumes. (*See page E-10)
