Editing sounds and performances

The Sound edit mode is where you can edit sounds or perfor- mances. Edit parameters are exactly the same in both cases, but performances also memorize the split point (if the sounds are in Split mode).

to turn the Layer mode on, the Piano volume could be low- ered, to mix it with the Strings sound. It is like having a differ- ent sound when the Piano is playing alone, and when it is playing in layer with a String sound.

Single sounds and sound combinations can be pro- grammed in different ways. For example, when you press the PIANO button, the Piano volume can be set to the maximum. If you press the PIANO and STRINGS buttons together,

SOUNDS
				r.h / both
	40 x Main		yer

		(n) Main + La
	40 x Left			l.h.

Left sounds are exactly the same as Main sounds. When you are in Split mode, it is like having two different Main sounds assigned to each of your hand.

There are 40 Main sounds, 40 Left sounds, plus a variable number of Layer combinations. There is space for any kind of sound combination you wish to add to your sonic palette.

Accessing the Sound edit mode

To access the Sound edit mode, choose a sound, sound com- bination or performance, then press EDIT.

During editing, the Layer/Left parameters can only be accessed when you are in Layer or Split mode. If you are in Sound

mode, you can switch mode at any time during editing. If you are in Performance mode, you cannot switch mode. However, if you select a performance with two sounds in Split, the SPLIT indicator will light.

Exit from the Sound edit mode

After having edited some parameter, press EXIT to exit the Sound edit mode. If nothing was modified, you immediately exit. If something was modified, the Sound Modified message will appear:

Press +/YES to save, -/NO (or EXIT) to cancel. If you choose to cancel, all changes will be deleted when choosing a different sound. If you choose to save, the edited sound replaces the old- er sound.

Sound Modified

Save? (Yes/No)

Saving a sound

If you make some changes during editing, when you press EXIT to exit the Sound edit mode, you are prompted to save your sound. See above.
