Basic Operations
This section gives some basic explanations about operating the synthesizer.
Selecting a Mode
There are several operation Modes — Voice Play Mode, Performance Play Mode, etc. — each of which
enables you to work efficiently with the synthesizer’s various functions.
An overview of each Mode is given on Page 30.
There are separate Play Modes for Voices and Performances. To enter each of these Modes, use the
appropriate MODE key ([VOICE] for Voice Play Mode, [PERFORM] for Performance Play Mode).
There are also separate Edit and Job Modes for Voices and Performances. To enter Edit or Job Mode,
simply press the [EDIT] or [JOB] key while in each respective Play Mode.
Similarly, pressing the [STORE] key in Voice or Performance Mode takes you into Store Mode where
you can store Voices or Performances.
Other Modes include Utility Mode where you can specify system settings, Card Mode where you can
perform tasks related to the Memory Card, and Sequence Mode where you can play back MIDI song
files or create a sequence chain. (Press the [UTILITY] key for Utility Mode, the [CARD] key for Card
Mode and the [SEQ PLAY] key for Sequence Mode.)
