Chapter 3. Convenient performance functions
Since the XP-10 has a limited number of controllers,
each controller has two or more functions assigned to
it, as given above. This means that the function con-
trolled by a controller at any given time will depend
on the status of the XP-10; i.e., there is a priority order
for the controller settings. The following paragraphs
explain how the various functions of a controller are
given priority.
Pitch Bender
Normally, this controls the pitch as described in sec-
tion C. However when an arpeggio is playing and
you press [PALETTE SELECT] (so that the arpeggio
[ON/OFF] indicator is blinking), the Pitch Bender
will control the Octave Range of the arpeggiator. If
you press [PALETTE SELECT] once again (so that the
arpeggio [ON/OFF] indicator is lit steadily), the Pitch
Bender will once again control the pitch.
Other controllers
Normally, controllers will control the function that
you assign them, as described in section D. There are
two exceptions to this. 1) When the Keyboard Mode is
X-dual, the controller that was specified as the X-dual
controller (either the modulation lever, pedal, or slid-
er) will control X-dual rather than the function it was
assigned in section D. 2) When the arpeggiator is
playing, the controller that was selected for arpeggio
pattern control (the slider) will control the arpeggiator
rather than the function it was assigned in section D.
Furthermore, if the slider is selected to control X-dual
and also to control the arpeggiator pattern, the last-
selected function will take priority, as shown in the
following examples.
Example 1
Suppose that the slider has been selected to control X-
dual, and that the Keyboard Mode has been set to X-
dual. In this case, the slider will control X-dual. Still in
X-dual mode, suppose that you turned on the arpeg-
giator. The slider will still control X-dual. However if
you now press [PALETTE SELECT], the slider will
control the arpeggio pattern, and not X-dual. If you
press [PALETTE SELECT] once again so that the slid-
er no longer controls the arpeggiator, it will once
again control X-dual.
Example 2
Suppose that the Keyboard Mode is other than X-dual,
and that you are using the arpeggiator. If you now press
[PALETTE SELECT], the slider will control the arpeggio
pattern. However if you then press [X-DUAL] to switch
the Keyboard Mode to X-Dual, the slider will control X-
dual, and not the arpeggio pattern.
Selecting an entirely different
set of XP-10 settings while you
play (Performance)
What is a Performance?
On the XP-10, you can press buttons to select Tones or
Drum Sets or change the Keyboard Mode, etc. at any
time. However, making these changes requires a cer-
tain amount of time, and may be difficult to do while
you continue playing. If you need to change many
settings at once, it is convenient to use a Performance.
A Performance contains all the settings described from
chapter 2 “Trying out the Tones” (p.16) to chapter 3
“Modifying the sound in real time while you play”
(p.28). (In addition to these, there are also other settings
which are included in a Performance. For details refer
to “List of Performance parameters” p.59.)
If you store a group of settings in a Performance, you
can then call up those settings instantly by simply
selecting that Performance.
The XP-10 contains a total of 128 Performances; Preset
Performances 1-64 are set at the factory and cannot be
changed, and User Performances 1-64 allow you to
store modified versions of the Preset Performances.
* For the numbers and contents of the Performances,
refer to “Performance list” (p.69).
Selecting a Performance
1. Press [PERFORM/TONE].
The Performance Select display will appear.
2. Press [USER/PRESET] and select either “Pre”
(Preset Performances) or “User” (User Performances).
Preset Performance
Perform Pre:01
Part 1
Performance No.
3. Use the numeric keys ({1]-[0]) to specify the num-
ber (1-64) of the Performance you wish to select.
If you make a mistake, press [CANCEL] and specify
the number once again.
* You can also select Performances using VALUE|[-] /[+]
instead of the numeric keys. In this case, skip step 4.
