Playing the Keyboard in the Voice mode
Selecting a Voice from the Favorite
Category
1 Press the [FAVORITE] button in the Voice Play
display.
The list of Voices registered to the Favorite Category will be
shown.
2 Select the Voice with the Cursor [U]/[D]
buttons or data dial.
3 Press the [ENTER] button to actually call up
the Voice.
Calling up the Simple Display
From the Voice Play display, you can call up the Simple
Display by holding the [SHIFT] button then pressing the
Cursor [L]/[R] buttons. This Simple Display shows the
Voice name with a larger-than-normal character size.
Three character types are available for selection.
Changing the tonal
qualities of the Voice
Knobs 1 – 4 let you adjust a variety of parameters for the
current Voice, such as effect depth, attack/release
characteristics, timbre, and others. Five functions can be
assigned to each Knob, alternatively selected via the
Knob Function buttons.
1 Press the Knob Function buttons (located at
the left of Knobs 1 – 4), repeatedly if
necessary, so that the lamp corresponding to
the desired functions lights.
The Knob Select pop-up display will appear. In the pop-up
display, the function currently assigned to the Knob and the
current value of the function are shown.
To close the pop-up display, press the [EXIT] button.
NOTE
When the “Knb/Sldr Func Disp Sw” is set to “off” in the Utility
General display, the Knob Select pop-up display will not be
shown.
2 Turn a desired Knob while playing the
keyboard.
The Knob pop-up display will appear, and the function
assigned to the Knob you’re currently operating will affect
the sound of the current Voice. The Knob pop-up display
shows the function assigned to the Knob you’re currently
operating, the function value, and the “Original” value. The
“Original” value indicates the unedited value (previously
saved value) of the function assigned to the Knob.
