Chapter 1. Overview of the XV-88

Assigning a Name

The XV-88 lets you assign names to Patches, Performances,
and Rhythm Sets. The procedure is the same for any type of
data.

To assign a name, use

/

to move the cursor to the

location where you wish to input a character. Then use the
VALUE dial or [INC/+]/[DEC/-] or the Numeric Keys to
input a character.

Available characters/symbols:

space, A–Z, a–z, 0–9, ! " # $ % & ’ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ]
^ _ ` { | }

Using the Numeric Keys

The numeric keys are used to input the numerals printed on
each key as well as the characters assigned to each key (see
the table below). Each time you press a numeric key, the
display will cycle through the numeral and characters
printed above the key. To specify a lowercase character, hold
down [SHIFT] as you press the numeric key.
