Each
sound
(Patch)
of
the
M-GS64
has
two
numbers
associated
with
it;
the
Program
number
and
the
Bank
number.
Sounds
with
a
Bank
number
of
000
are
called
Capital
sounds,
and
sounds
with
another
Bank
number
are
called
Variation
sounds.
In most displays, the Program number is shown. The display of
the
M-G364
is
able
to
show
either
the
Program
number
or
the
Bank number — not both simultaneously.

@ Selecting a Capital Sound
Press Value «@ or B» to select the desired sound or drum set.
The display will indicate the Program number.
@ Selecting a Variation Sound
Simultaneously press both Value ~@ and B» to enter the
mode for selecting Variation sounds. The display will show the

Press Value =< or B to select the desired Variation sound.
To exit the Variation Select mode and return to the normal
Program number display, simultaneously press both the Value
~<@ and B buttons.
* Tf the Part is a Drum Part, pressing the Variation button will
not
cause
the
Drum
Set
to
change.
This
is
because
Drum
Sets
do not have variations.
Some Bank numbers are discontinuous.
In modes where Patches are displayed, the following symbols
will
be
displayed
to
tell
you
what
type
of
sound

currently
selected.

& Monitoring a Part...
After

only
one
Part
will
be
heard
at
a
time,
with

muted.
During
ensemble
play
with
a
sequencer,
it
can
sometimes
be
hard
to
focus
on
listening
to
what
individual
Parts
are
playing.
At
such
times,
you
can
activate
the
Monitor
button
(turn
on
its
indicator)
and
then
switch
through
the
Parts
to
listen
to
what
is
being played by each of them.
