Program Mode and the Program Editor
Program mode is the heart of the K2500, where you select programs for performance and
editing. The K2500 is packed with great sounds, but it’s also a synthesizer of truly amazing
depth and flexibility. When you’re ready to start tweaking sounds, the Program Editor is the
place to start. But first there’s a bit more general information about Program mode that wasn’t
covered in Chapter 2. Refer to the illustration below as you read the sections that follow.
