Selecting a patch
On the RS-50, the sounds you use for normal playing are called
patches
. A patch is
analogous to an instrument held by a member of an orchestra.
Each patch consists of two tones; an
upper tone
and
lower tone
. You can assign the
two tones to their own region of the keyboard (p. 44), and make independent settings
for each tone (p. 46).
■
Selecting a patch by category
The RS-50 allows you to rapidly select and call up a patch by specifying the type of
patch. All the patches are organized into 10 category groups.
