Controls and Connections

MODE Keys

Alternate presses of a MODE key will turn the mode
(TRIG, GATE, AM, etc.) on or off, and when the function is
on the associated lamp is lit.

If you press the EDIT key then press a MODE key you will
see the edit menu for that mode. The associated lamp
flashes when the edit menu is displayed.

Some of the modes share
keys with the numeric
keypad. For example, to
see the edit screens for
HOP

mode, press EDIT

then the numeric 5 key.

To return to the main menu
from any edit menu, press
the ESCAPE key.
