CREATING SOUNDS
1 .~ound Synthesis Techniques
To create new sounds on the EX-8000, you change or
edit old programs. You do not start with a “blank slate”.
There are 64 sounds already in memory. If you have a
new sound in mind, the easiest approach is to first
se-
lect
a sound that resembles the sound you want to cre-
ate. Then “edit” (change the selected sound until you
get the sound you want. If you don’t find a similar sound,
it doesn’t matter; start with any sound you like.)
After you finish editing your sound, you store it into
memory. At this point you can give it a different program
number (thereby preserving the sound you started with)
or the same program (thereby erasing or “overwriting”
the old sound). (See page 40 Program Write)
