Creating a Performance
Using the XV-2020 as a Multitimbral Sound Module
In Performance mode, you can use the XV-2020 as a 16-part multitimbral sound module. Let’s try choosing
some Parts and their sounds, and then play the multiple Parts together as a Performance.
The basic steps for doing this include:
• Choosing the Parts to Play (p. 45)
• Choosing a Patch for each Part (p. 35)
• Setting the Parts’ MIDI reception channels (p. 74)
After you’ve completed setting up your Performance, try playing a sequence from your computer or
sequencer using the Performance’s sounds.
Switching Parts
You can switch parts by rotating [PART] in Performance Part Play mode or Performance Play mode
(numerals correspond to the part numbers).
Turning a Tone On or Off
Refer to Choosing the Tones That Sound (Tone On/Off) (p. 45).
Confirming Tones
