SELECTING SYNTH SOUNDS

The available memory slots are divided into three categories; Synth, Pad and Bass, with 99 memory

slots in each category, a total of 297 sounds. Having categories helps you quickly find the type of

sound you are looking for.

available sounds. To jump between categories, press S

HIFT and the

ATEGORY buttons. When you select a sound, the name is shown briefly in

the M

AIN DISPLAY. The smaller LED Display in the Sound Select section

always shows the patch number.If a Synth sound has been edited, a dot is

shown after the number to reflect this in the S

OUND SELECT DISPLAY.

To store a Synth Patch, press SHIFT and the STORE SYNTH button in the Voices section. The display

in the Sound Select section starts blinking. You can now use the S

OUND SELECT UP/DOWN buttons

to navigate to a memory location where you would like to store your Patch. To switch category, press

HIFT and the CATEGORY buttons.

To name a Synth Patch you can use the P

AGE -/+ buttons to move the cursor and the VALUE DIAL to

select character just as for Programs, see page 13.
