Controlling the Functions Assigned to the Knobs (ASSIGN)
Assigning functions to the knobs or the buttons

2. Hold down the [SHIFT] button and turn one of the ASSIGN
[1]–[8] knobs. Or, hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the

Each effect is applied only to the zone that’s selected by SELECT.
If the SYSTEM setting “Control Destination” is set to PROGRAM,
operating the various ASSIGN knobs or the ASSIGN [9] button does
not apply an effect to zones whose zone setting (ZONE EDIT) “A1–A9
(Assign 1–9 Control Switch)” check box is not selected.
MEMO
Depending on the state of the selected program or tone, the
assigned function might not be supported, so that you might not
obtain the effect you expect.
The values that are recalled when you switch sounds will be either
the default values or the most recently-operated value.
