Use numeric keys to specify a note value in step recording,
etc. The corresponding note value is at the lower right of
each numeric key.

When assigning a name for Patches, Performances, files and
songs, you can use the numeric keys to specify alphabetic
characters.
For details, refer to Assigning a name below.
Restoring a previous value (Undo)
If you wish to restore a value to its immediate previous
value, press [UNDO/REDO] to return the value to its pre-
modified state.
The Undo function can be used when modifying sound
source settings, recording a song, editing a song, etc.
If you are in the middle of an operation that requires
rewriting large amounts of data (such as song editing),
a message window will show Memory is low!! So you
cannot undo. Execute anyway? If you are sure you
wont have to undo the current operation, press [F5]
(OK). Pressing [F6] (Cancel) cancels the operation.
Assigning a name
The XP-80 allows you to assign a name to data types such as:
Patch, Performance, Rhythm Set, Song, Pattern, Song File,
Chain File, Data File, User Groove Template File, Standard
MIDI File, Volume Label
The procedure is the same for each data type.
<Procedure>

ter.
Turn the VALUE dial, or press [INC]/[DEC] to specify
the character.

space, AZ, az, 09, +-*/|=!?<>()[]{}:;.,"'`#%&$\@^_
Lowercase characters and some symbols (+*/|=?<>[]:;.,"\)
