To edit a VA synth (analog) program, select one as appropriate
in the usual way using the data
wheel, the INC/DEC keys or a combination of the BANK keys and the A-P/1-8 keys.

You can now choose to edit the oscillator(s), filter, envelopes and LFO(s) using the soft keys

Other aspects of the program can be selected using the soft keys down the left of the LCD.
This ‘How To’ tutorial follows a sequential approach -
i.e. oscillators then filters then envelopes
then LFOs, mod matrix, effects. You can use the
bookmarks in this PDF to skip directly to the
section you want.
