Selecting Favorite Rhythm Sets from the Favorite List

On the XV-88, you can bring together your favorite and most frequently used Rhythm Sets in one place by registering them in the Favorite List. The Favorite List gives you immediate access to your favorite Rhythm Sets wherever they are stored, whether in the XV-88 itself, on Wave Expansion Boards, or on memory cards.

If you have saved Rhythm Sets located on Wave Expansion Boards or memory cards onto the Favorite List, and then attempt to select one of the saved Rhythm Sets without having the corresponding Wave Expansion Board installed, or the relevant memory card inserted, “No media” appears in the display, and the selected Rhythm Set cannot be played.

For instructions on how to register to the Favorite List, refer to “Registering Favorite Patches/Rhythm Sets
