■ Voice Editing From the Performance Mode
There may be times when you’ll want to actually edit a voice being used in the Performance mode
rather than just the Performance parameters. You can jump directly to the Voice Edit mode from
the Performance or Performance Edit mode by pressing the [VOICE] key while holding the
[PERFORMANCE] key. First the Performance mode display will appear with the [F1] and [F2]
function keys assigned to part selection.
Use the [F1] and [F2] keys to select the part corresponding to the voice you want to edit, then press
the [EDIT] key to go to the Voice Edit mode. Once the voice has been edited as required, save the
edited data (page 48), then press the [PERFORMANCE] key to return to the Performance mode.
The voice type cannot be changed when this method is used to access the Voice Edit mode. Use the normal
Voice Edit mode — accessed via the Voice mode — if you need to change the voice type.
When you edit the voice with the Layer Switch (page 166) turned on, the voices from the other parts with
the Layer Switch turned on will be produced. When you edit the voice with the Layer Switch turned off,
only the currently editing voice will be produced.
■ Compare & Store
As in the Voice Edit mode, the moment you alter any parameter in the Performance Edit mode a
small inverse “
” will appear at the top left on the display, indicating that the performance has
been edited but not yet stored.
You can also press the [EDIT/COMPARE] key while in the edit mode to switch back and forth
between the original and edited sound (an inverse “
” appears at the top left on the display when
the Compare function is engaged — i.e. “ ” the original sound is being monitored).
When you exit from the Performance Edit mode the “ ” will remain at the top left on the display
until you either store the edited performance or select a different performance number or mode. If
you do select a different performance number or mode prior to storing the edited performance, the
edited data will be lost! So be sure to store edited performance data you want to keep, as described
on page 53.
