Do this in the same way as with the knobs:
1) Make sure Part Control is on. (Press the PART CONTROL
button, if necessary.)
2) Select a Part (with the PART SELECT keys at the lower end of
the keyboard).
3) Turn Part Control off (to free up more of the keyboard).
4) Start the pattern/song. (Press the START/STOP button.)
4Use the RIBBON CONTROLLER to change the

sound.

Touch the RIBBON CONTROLLER with one of your fingers, and move
it along the ribbon to change the sound of the selected Part.
The leftmost position on the ribbon corresponds to “0” or minimum,
and the rightmost to maximum. (For more information, see the
boxed section below.)

How the RIBBON CONTROLLER works
The RIBBON CONTROLLER starts affecting the sound
the moment you touch it, and instantly changes the
sound according to where you put your finger on the
ribbon. It also automatically overrides the setting of
the knobs. When you take your finger from the
ribbon, the selected parameter instantly snaps back to
the default setting.
How the RIBBON CONTROLLER works and how it
relates to the knobs can best be explained by ex-
ample:
Let’s say that you’ve set the RIBBON CONTROLLER to
affect Cutoff.

STYLE
Next, you turn the CUTOFF knob to about the 3:00 or
4:00 position, making the sound brighter. Leaving
the knob at that position maintains that bright sound.
Now, you touch the RIBBON CONTROLLER, and the
sound instantly changes according to where your
finger is on the ribbon — overriding the effect of the
knob.
Keeping your finger on the ribbon and moving it back
and forth changes the sound continuously. When you
release your finger from the ribbon, the sound
instantly reverts back to what it was when the
CUTOFF knob was set to 12:00 (center).
