Settings for the Entire VC-1

Settings that affect the entire operating environment of the VC-1, such as tuning and MIDI message reception, are referred to as System functions. This section explains how to make settings for the System functions and describes the functions of the different System parameters.

How to Make the System Function Settings

fig.10-02(LCD_SystemGeneral)

3.Move the cursor to the value box of that parameter. Then modify the value by either turning the VALUE dial or pressing [INC/+] or

[DEC/-].

4.Repeat steps 3 to make the settings for the System function.

5.After you have edited the settings of the System function, touch <Write>, located in the lower right of the screen.

*Changes you make to the System function settings are only temporary—they will be discarded as soon as the power is turned off. If you want to keep any changes you’ve made in the system settings, you must save them in VC-1. When you perform the save procedure, the data that previously occupied the save destination will be lost. However, the factory setting data can be recovered by performing the Initialization procedure. (Factory Reset; p. 28)
