■ Selecting a part

When you click a Part button, the performance data of the selected part will be reflected by the screen

controllers or an external MIDI keyboard. If all of the Part buttons are off, the sample that is selected

in the Sample List will be used.

* If a Part button is on, the sample selected in the Sample List will not sound when you play the VariOS

keyboard or an external MIDI keyboard. The sample that is currently assigned to the selected part will be
