Editing a Normal Voice
“Editing” refers to the process of creating a Voice by changing the parameters that make up the Voice. This can be done in
Voice Edit, a sub mode within the Voice mode. To enter the Voice Edit mode, press the [VOICE] button to first call up the
Voice mode, then press the [EDIT] button.
Common Edit and Element Edit
A Normal Voice, which contains pitched musical
instrument-type sounds that can be played over the range
of the keyboard, can consist of up to eight Elements. There
are two types of Normal Voice Edit displays: those for
Common Edit to edit the settings common to all Elements,
and those for Element Edit to edit individual Elements.

NOTICE
• The edited Voice will be lost when selecting the different
Voice or turning the power off. Make sure to store the Voice
data to the internal memory by pressing the [STORE] button
before selecting a different Voice or turning the power off.
• Because User Memory to which the Voice is stored is Flash
Memory, the edited and stored Voice will not be erased even
if the power is turned off. You need not worry about losing
your stored data. The Voice Store operation, however, will
overwrite the Voice data already stored to the destination
Voice number. For this reason, important data should always
be backed up to a separate USB storage device or to a
computer connected via network to the MOTIF XF
(page 241).
