Basic Operations — Organizing Your Data
Display-based Controls
As you’ve seen in “Quick Guide” above, the TYROS features an exceptionally large and easy-to-understand display.
It provides comprehensive at-a-glance information on all current settings, and gives you convenient, intuitive control
over the TYROS’ functions.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) buttons.......................................................................................................
The LCD [A] - [J] buttons are used to select the corresponding menu. In the Open/Save display (page 66) shown above, for example,
the LCD [A] - [J] buttons can be used to select the corresponding respective voices.
The LCD [1] - [8] buttons are divided into eight sets of upper/lower buttons, and are used to make selections or adjust settings (up or
down correspondingly) for functions shown directly above them. In the Open/Save display (page 66) shown above, for example, the
upper LCD [1] - [8] buttons can be used to select the menus [P1] - [VIEW] in the upper row, and the lower LCD [1] - [8] buttons can
be used to select the menus [NAME] - [UP] in the lower row. Also in the above example, the upper LCD [4] - [6] buttons are inactive
and have no effect, because there are no menu items in the display that correspond to these buttons.
[DATA ENTRY] dial and [ENTER] button .................................................................................................
Depending on the selected LCD display, the [DATA ENTRY] dial can be used in the following two ways.
Entering the values
For parameters indicated at the bottom of the Main display (such as the “slider” controls in the mixer window; page 36), you can
conveniently use the [DATA ENTRY] dial in tandem with the LCD [1] - [8] buttons. Simply select the desired parameter with the
appropriate LCD button (the name changes color), then use the [DATA ENTRY] dial to adjust it.
This convenient technique also works well with pop-up parameters such as Tempo and Transpose. Simply press the appropriate button
(ex., [TEMPO +], then rotate the [DATA ENTRY] dial and press [ENTER] to close the window.
Selecting les (voice, style, song, and so on)
When one of the Open/Save displays (page 66) is shown, you can use the [DATA ENTRY] dial and the [ENTER] button to select a file
(voice, style, song, and so on). Rotate the [DATA ENTRY] dial to move the highlight and press the [ENTER] button to actually call up
the highlighted file. In the Open/Save display for voices shown above, for example, rotate the [DATA ENTRY] dial to move the cursor
to the desired voice and press the [ENTER] button to actually call up the selected voice.
