Using the MC-09 as a synthesizer

3

Use the [INC] and [DEC] buttons to select a different tone or

rhythm set.

When you switch tones, the knobs and other settings included in that tone will be reflected by the pattern. This means that the sound will be heard in a different way than for the original pattern.

*If you select a different pattern or turn off the power, the pattern will revert to its original tone or rhythm set. If you want to keep your new setting, you must carry out the Save procedure (p. 30).

Editing other sound settings

In addition to the settings of the six knobs, each tone has many other settings (parameters) that determine the resulting sound, and you can edit the values of these parameters.

*A rhythm set does not have any adjustable parameters other than the volume setting of each rhythm tone.

Use the [INC] and [DEC] buttons to adjust the value.

If you want to adjust the value of another parameter, press another step [1]–[16] button.

While you press the step [1]–[16] buttons, the display will show an

abbreviation of the parameter name.

When you are finished making settings, press the [EXIT] button.

*These settings will revert to their original values if you select another pattern or turn off the power. If you want to keep your new settings, you must perform the Save operation (p. 30).
