Chapter 8. Saving Sounds

Modifications you make to a sound are temporary, and will be lost when the power is turned off, or when another Performance, Patch or Rhythm Set is selected. If you wish to keep the modified Tones, perform the Save operation.

If the settings of a Performance, Patch, or Rhythm Set have been modified, a * symbol will appear at the left of the group in the corresponding PLAY page, indicating that the data has been modified. After you save the data to the XV-88 (user memory), the * symbol will disappear.
