Data Entry
Numeric value insertion, function and parameter selection is carried out as follows:
- selection of a MENU function with the corresponding arrowhead using the CUR-
SOR buttons;
- change of Page (where two or more pages are present) with the PAGE buttons;
- data entry (change of parameter values) with the Tempo/Data +/– buttons and, in
some cases, also the +/– buttons of the numeric selection keypad.
For example: to assign a different Sound to a track, first select the track with the corre-
sponding function button (F1 … F9). The selected track starts to flash in the track display
zone, indicating that it is ready to accept a modification (in this case, the PERF function
must not be selected and the SINGLE TOUCH PLAY function must be off). The next
step is to select the Sound to assign to the track by specifying the corresponding Program
Change number on the numeric selection keypad (with the SOUND LED ON).
Several panel buttons, if held pressed for about 2 seconds, gain direct access to the modi-
fication of the parameters of the selected function. These buttons are:
STORE PERFORMANCE, STYLE/TEMPO LOCK, ARRANGE ON/OFF, TOUCH,
HARMONY, REVERB, CHORUS.
Inserting Alphanumeric data
In name writing situations (Performances, Song Styles), the keyboard activates as a source
of alphanumeric data. Each note of the keyboard corresponds to a letter of the alphabet or
a number.
Up to 7 characters can be entered at the top centre of the display in the 8 digit zone.
The following illustration shows the configuration of the alphanumeric data of the key-
board.
The notes on the extreme left provide some word processing functions:
• D2 : CAPS - Toggles between Capitals On and Capitals Off.
• D#2 : INS/OVER - Toggles between Insert and Overwrite. Insert inserts
a character between two entries. Overwrite cancels a character at
the cursor position. By default, the status of this parameter is in
Overwrite mode.
