Units of Sound
Tone Tones are an ideal way to select and play a sound.
The sounds that you select using the TONE buttons are called “tones.” Tones can be assigned to each of the eight zones (zone 1–8) and played.
You can play multiple zones simultaneously from the keyboard, or play them in separate regions of the keyboard.
You can use the Designer function (p. 21) to edit a tone to your taste. You can store an edited tone in a program.
Some of the tones are “rhythm sets” which contain multiple percussion instrument sounds.
A rhythm set will produce a different percussion instrument sound for each key (note number) that you press.
Program Programs let you store a combination of settings and multiple sounds.
The sounds that you select using the PROGRAM button are called “programs.”
Programs contain settings for the tones that are assigned to the zones, along with settings that are common to all zones (such as reverb, delay,
and EQ). You can store 300 programs containing settings that you’ve edited to your taste.
Scene Scenes are an ideal way to store and order favorite tones or programs, or when using an external MIDI device.
The sounds that you select using the SCENE button are called “scenes.”
Scenes let you store performance settings that you’ve edited to your taste. Up to 100 scenes that you save can be recalled from the TONE
buttons, with ten scenes for each button.
You can use scenes to easily recall settings in the order of the songs in your live performance, or to control or set up an external device.
It’s also easy to store tones or programs without change, modify their sound or settings, or change the order in which they are recalled.
