WARM UP TUNE TIME
Upon rst power-up, the PRO-800 tunes itself. The tune
light illuminates, and the display indicates the oscillator or
lter being tuned from A1 through A8, b1 through b8 and F1
through F8 for Oscillator A, B and the Filter respectively. The
routine takes about 20 seconds to complete depending on
the tuning of your instrument.
It is normal to have to retune the instrument during the rst
30 minutes of operation as the electronics warm to a stable
operating temperature. To tune, simply press the tuning
button as required.
MANUAL/PRESET MODES
Pressing the PRESET button switches between manual
mode, in which the synthesiser parameters sound
parameters reect the active sonic state of the instrument,
and preset mode in which the sound is a stored patch.
You can edit a stored patch, manual patch or preset patch at
any time by completing the following:
1. Press the RECORD button on the keypad. It will blink.
2. Press the two-digit location to which you want to save
the patch.
The patch is saved. It will overwrite whatever sound patch
was there before.
You can cancel a patch store any time while the RECORD
button is blinking by pressing it before pressing
another button.
