Sequential Prophet VS - Program Edit, Review, and Store Example; Random Program Creation

28
PROGRAM EDIT, REVIEW, AND STORE EXAMPLE
The following example does not aect any programs in memory. Only the
program name is changed, and if desired, the new name can be the same as
the original.
1. Select a program.
2. Press Name.
The rst character of the current name is underlined.
3. Change the underlined character with the slider.
4. Press Name.
The next character is underlined.
5. Repeat these two steps until the new name is entered.
6. Before saving the program, check that the "new" program sounds the same as
the original by pressing Review, then playing the keyboard.
The original program name is displayed. The original program sounds no
dierent from edited version.
7. When done reviewing, switch Review o.
8. To store the program, switch Store on and enter the two-digit program number
chosen with the Review function.
RANDOM PROGRAM CREATION
This unique feature generates sets of random parameter values. Although few
programs will be usable without modication, they may serve well as starting
points for creating new programs. Many random programs demonstrate
the eects of unusual combinations of the VS' features which you may
not otherwise consider trying. Generating random programs is certainly an
eective way to overcome "programmer's block."
Random programs are actually edits to the current program, and, like any
other edited program, to be remembered, must be stored intentionally.
To create a random program:
9. Select any program.
10. Hold down Enter, then press 2.
This gives random values to all program parameters, from the mixer
envelope to the program name. (For a higher percentage of useful
programs, the VS avoids certain combinations of parameters.)
