Saving Layered Voices
There are two ways you can save a layered voice along with your changes to the volume and
transposition. Both are quickly executed with just a couple of button presses. The first way is to
select the [Save] button and enter the Save Dialog, the second is using a [Favorites] button. A
description of each method follows.
Save Button
When you enter the Save dialog, the display shows the location of the first empty favorite
location. You can use the [Prev] or [Next] button to change the location. [Value Jump]
alternates between the first empty favorite location and Favorite#1. Continuously pressing the
[Prev] or [Next] button cycles through all six favorite locations.
To save your layered voice, press the [Save] button. Its LED is flashing and the display scrolls
SAVE VOICE AS FX. (X represents the favorites location.)
Press the [Save] button again to save the layered voice. The layered voice is now saved and the
MPS20 exits the Save Dialog and returns to Voice Mode.
Favorites Buttons
This method is an even quicker way to save a layered voice. Select a [Favorites] button to store
the layered voice. Then press and hold the button at least 1.5 seconds. The layered voice is now
stored in that location. At this point, the MPS20 is in Voice Mode, the just saved layered voice is
active, and its ID number is in the display.
NOTE: If you don't save the current changes and exit Layer
Mode, the MPS20 remembers the last layered voice. Just
press the [Layer] button again and your changes should still
be available to save. Be sure to save your changes before
you turn off the MPS20 or they will be lost.
Changing Layered Voices
If you have saved a layered voice as a favorite and want to make a change, select the favorite.
Press the [Layer] button to enter Layer Mode.
The primary voice remains the same and the secondary voice is the default voice. You can
select another voice to use as the secondary voice, make changes, and save the newly layered
voice just as you did when you created and saved the original.
