listed in Table

The

listed
in
the UTILITY

Functions
section). However, for a detailed
description of
all
parameters,
consult
the DX7 owner's

Virtually all

may be edited from a DX7; the only
plarameters which
must be edited on the fornt
panel
of the
TX816
are Output Level Attenuation and Limit Highest/
Lowest Note. The Edit mode is entered
by
holding
down

If the TX816
is
in
the
Play

the next display shown

display, release the

one second

you to select for editing one
of
the
32 voices stored
in the TF1 's Internal
memory. The
voice
will
be
transferred
from the memory
to
the Edit Buffer,
where
it is available
for modifying. The voice and
function
data
will
be output from the
MIDI
OUT terminal on the front of the MIDI
rack frame,
so that connecting this
to the
MIDI
IN of a
DX7
as
described
in
the
SETTING
UP chapter, copies all the
data to
the
Edit
Buffer of
the DX7, where
you
can edit the
voice as if it were one
of
the
DX7's
internal voices. The DX7
should
be
switched
to SYS INFO AVAIL,its
MIDI channel
set to
1,
and its
Internal Memory Protect OFF.

select the voice
for
editing.
Pressing these keys will
select the next higher-or
lower-numbered
voice, respectively. If you
hold
down
one of these
keys, the
LED
Display
will to through the
voice numbers rapidly,
stopping when
you
release
the key.
The LED Display
example above shows that voice
32 has been selected
for editing.
The small
dot
in
the lower right of the LED Display
indicates
that editing has
commenced
and
at
least
one parameter in the
voice has been changed.
NOTE:
You
can also select a
voice number
for
editing,
using, a
DX7,
provided it is
in the
SYS
INFO UNAVAIL
mode.
Simply press INTERNAL MEMORY SELECT
on the DX7 and
press the
desired voice selector
key.
The LED Display will
show the voice number
you

to
then switch
the
DX7
to
SYS
INFO AVAIL
for editing.
If
you
select
a voice with the DX7 in
SYS
INFO AVAIL, it
will send the data of
its
own internal
voice (or
a
cartridge
voice, if you selected Cartridge Memory
