Bypassing the AUTO FILL function (Fill In On

User Program Change)

User Programs also contain the “address” of the Style
division (pattern) to be used when you recall those reg-
istrations. By selecting a User Program, you may there-
fore switch from the VARIATION [1] pattern (which you
selected by hand) to VARIATION [3] (stored in the new
User Program), for example.
If the [AUTO¥FILL¥IN] button lights, any “automated”
changes to another Style pattern are usually preceded
by a fill-in phrase (see the right illustration):
If [AUTO¥FILL¥IN] doesn’t light, the change to
VARIATION [3] occurs as soon as you select the User
Program in question.
Given that it is fairly easy to forget about the
[AUTO¥FILL¥IN] button while playing, the E-80 allows
you to specify that the Arranger should never play a
fill-in when a switch to a different Style pattern is trig-
gered by User Programs you select.
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
The display changes to:
(2) Press the [UTILITY] field, followed by the [GLOBAL]
field.
(3) Press the [FILL¥IN¥ON¥USER¥PROGRAM¥CHNG] field
to switch this function on or off.
This setting has no effect on situations where the
[AUTO¥FILL¥IN] button doesn’t light (in which case no
fill-in is played).
(4) Press the [Back] field to return to the menu or the
[EXIT] button to return to the main page.
Automatic functions for User Programs

Song Link

This function means that, by recalling a User Program,
you also prepare the associated song. Such a song must
be available when you load the User Program in ques-
tion for this system to work. All you need to do, then, is
hit the [PLAY÷STOP¥®÷ª] button to start playback of
that song.
Your E-80 only memorizes the song name. If, at the
time you recall such a User Program, that song is not
available, the display will respond with:
Remove the memory card (because the internal mem-
ory is always available), insert the proper card and
select that User Program again. If you don’t, the E-80
will start playback of the previously loaded song when
you press [PLAY÷STOP¥®÷ª] again.
