The ’ Indicator

If you alter any parameters in Voice Edit Mode, the

’indicator will be displayed in the top left of the screen. This gives a quick indication that the current voice has been modified but not yet stored.

Edit indicator

GENName) Ctgry

Even if you exit to Voice Play Mode, the edited settings for the current Voice will not be lost so long as you do not select another Voice.

The ’ indicator will also be displayed in Voice Play Mode, and if any Assignable knobs are used.

The “Compare” Function

Use this to listen to the difference between the Voice with your edited settings and the same Voice prior to editing.

1Press the [COMPARE (EDIT)] key while in Voice Edit Mode. The ’ indicator at the top left of the screen will change to the ” indicator and the Voice settings prior to editing will temporarily be reinstated for comparison purposes.

Compare indicator

GEN”Name) Ctgry

While the “Compare” function is enabled, editing will not be possible using knobs [A] to [C] or knob [1]/[2].

2Press the [EDIT] key again to disable the “Compare” function and restore the settings for your edited Voice.

The ELEMENT ON/OFF Function

Use this to mute individual Elements within a Voice. For example, you could mute all Elements other than that which you are editing. Thus, you can hear how the edited settings affect just that Element. Details are given on Page 46.

Voice Store

The edited settings for the current Voice will be lost if you select another Voice or Mode. To avoid losing important data, you should always use Voice Store to store your edited Voice. Details about the Voice Store procedure are given on Page 101.

Details about the Edit Recall function are given on Page 100.

When creating a new Voice from scratch, it can be useful, prior to editing, to clear the settings for the current Voice using the Initialize Voice function in Voice Job Mode (Page 100).

Normal Voice

When editing Normal Voices, there are 12 settings consisting of six Common Edit settings (common to all four Elements) and six Element-specific settings.
