Parameters marked with a “

” can be controlled using
specified MIDI messages (Matrix Control). Settings in the
Control screen will determine how these parameters are
controlled (p. 80).
If a number is displayed for the parameter name, ( , , ,
), you can use the realtime controller knob of the corresponding
number (the left most knob is number 1, the right most knob is
number 4) to set the value.
When you enter the Patch Edit screen, the indicator at the right of the
Realtime Control knobs will go out, and the Realtime Control knobs
can be used to edit the parameters of the patch or rhythm set. If you
once again press the button located at the right of the Realtime
Control knobs to make the indicator light, the knobs will control
their original functions. When you exit the Patch Edit screen, the
indicator will automatically return to its previous lit state.
