PANEL MEMORY

SOUND EDIT enables you to create your own new sound by altering one of the this instrument’s preset sounds. Your new sound can be stored in one of the sound memory locations. SOUND EDIT has two methods of use. You can edit in detail using functions more commonly associated with a synthesizer, or you can use EASY EDIT which allows you to change some basic parameters on one page.

Sound Edit

1.Select a sound to edit.

2.Turn on the PROGRAM MENUS button.

PROGRAM

MENUS

•The display looks similar to the following.

3.Select SOUND EDIT.

•The display looks similar to the following.

4.Select the desired menu and follow the pro-

cedures on the corresponding setting display.

•To check the sound of a single tone, press the SOLO button to highlight the SOLO indication. Only the currently selected tone sounds when a key is played.

•When the TEMPO/PROGRAM indicator is lit, it indicates that the TEMPO/PROGRAM is available for setting the current function.

5.When the sound is just the way you like it, on the SOUND EDIT MENU display press the

WRITE button to store your new sound.

•Press the EDITED (or ORIGINAL) button to switch be- tween the modified sound (EDITED) and the original sound (ORIGINAL). This allows you to compare the edited sound to the original sound as you are modifying it.

•When DRUM KIT sounds are selected and the SOUND EDIT is activated, the setting display looks different from that for other sounds, but the basic operation is the same.

(To specify the percussion instrument you wish to edit, use the ∧ and ∨ buttons to select the sound name, or alternatively, while pressing the keyboard key for the corresponding sound, press the NOTE SELECT button.)

•To record the DIGITAL DRAWBAR settings, first adjust the settings, then enter the SOUND EDIT mode, press the WRITE button and follow the procedure on the display.
