Chapter 8 Saving Tones and Other Data Youve Created
Initializing a Sound
This function resets all of the parameters in the current Patch,
Performance, Rhythm Set or Rhythm Tone to their standard
or factory default settings.
* Only current data (data in the temproary memory) will be
initialized, and data resident in user memory will not be
rewritten. If you want to restore all settings to their factory
values, carry out Factory Reset. (p. 206)
* To initialize the General MIDI System, refer to Initializing
GM Settings (Init) (p. 229).

Type (Initialize Type)

DEFAULT: This resets the data currently in the Temporary
memory to the standard values called initial data: INIT
PATCH, INIT PERFORM or INIT SET. Use this setting when
you wish to create a sound from scratch.
PRESET: Resets the current data to the factory user group
settings.
If the current data is a Performance, Patch or Rhythm Set
from PRESET memory (PR-AG), and initialization is
performed with PRESET specified, the data will be reset to
the value of the correspondingly numbered user group.

For Patches or Performances

If you will be using PRESET for the initialization, select the
USER group Performance/Patch number whose data you
wish to restore.

not matter which Patch or Performance is selected.
* You can select “DEFAULT (4 TONES)“or “DEFAULT
(MULTI-PARTIAL)“ in a Patch Mode.
