Basic Operation
In this section you’ll learn about the fundamental operations of the S90 ES—the use of the panel controls and how to execute
basic functions such as selecting programs, naming programs/files, and using the keyboard to directly enter
certain values.
This section starts off with the Factory Set operation, which allows you to restore the instrument to its original condition—in
case you’ve inadvertently changed any important settings.
Restoring the Factory-programmed S90 ES
The S90 ES has a Factory Set function for restoring your S90 ES’s memory to the factory default settings.
This lets you restore the synthesizer’s default User Voices, Performances and Multis, as well as its System and other settings.
Keep in mind that once you edit any settings, the corresponding factory defaults will be overwritten and lost. Make sure you are not overwriting any
important data. You should back up any important data to the USB device beforehand (page 126).
1. Press the [UTILITY] button to enter the Utility mode (the indicator lights).
2. Press the [JOB] button to enter the Utility Job mode.
3. Press the [ENTER] button. (The display prompts you for confirmation.)
To return to the original display, press the [DEC/NO] button.
To execute the Factory Set, press the [INC/YES] button.
4. After the Factory Set has been completed, a “Completed” message appears and operation returns to the original
display.
For Factory Set operations that take longer to process, you will see the message “Executing…” or “Please Keep Power On!” during processing. Do not
switch the power off while this message is on the display. Turning the power off in this state results in loss of all user data and may cause the system
to freeze. This means that this synthesizer may not be able to start up properly, even when turning the power on next time.
nAll settings in the Utility mode that are related to the Plug-in boards are stored only to the memory on those respective boards, and not to the memory
of this synthesizer. Because of this, the Factory Set operation cannot be used to restore settings for those devices.
