Custom Voice Edit

The Full Edit Parameters

The

FULL EDIT mode can be entered as described on page 78. The FULL EDIT mode can be used to edit both

internal voices and voices in the custom voice group.

Use the [

] and [

] LCD buttons to the right of the display to select the

E1:BASIC, E2:CONTROLLER,

E3:ENVELOPE, E4:EFFECTS and STORE/CLEAR display pages. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to the left of the
display to select the various parameters within each page.

Many PSR-4000 orchestra voices are actually made up of two sounds “layered” together. Each of these layers

is called an “element”.

SINGLE will appear in the upper left corner of the display when a 1-element voice is being

selected for editing, and

DUAL will appear when a 2-element voice is selected. DRUM will appear when a drum kit

voice has been selected (drum kit voices are all single-element). When a 2-element voice which allows individual
editing of each element is selected the

ELEMENT LCD button can be used to select the element to be edited: A or

B. The COMPARE LCD button can be used during editing to compare the sound of the original voice with the edited
voice.

each custom voice. Use the < > LCD [/]
control to move the name cursor to the various
character positions, then use the

A~Z, a~z or

0~9… LCD [/] control to select the required
character for each position. The

A~Z LCD [/]

control selects capital letters, the

a~z LCD [/]

control selects lowercase letters, and the

LCD [/] control selects numbers and special
characters.

Use the

WAVE ▲▼ LCD [/] controls to

select a wave. The “wave” is the raw sound on which
the voice is based. 2-element voices use two waves.
The PSR-4000 has 450 waves in internal read-only
memory. Waves from custom voices can also be
used.
