Chapter 1. Overview of the XP-30<br />
GM Mode<br />
This special mode makes the XP-30 function as a GM<br />
compatible sound source. You should select this mode when<br />
you want to play back a GM score (music files created for<br />
GM sound source).<br />
To set GM mode, hold down [SHIFT] and press [PERFORM].<br />
[PERFORM], [PATCH] and [RHYTHM] indicators will not<br />
light.<br />
■ About the Function Buttons<br />
Function buttons are buttons that perform a variety of<br />
functions. The function they perform will depend on the<br />
current mode, and on whether [EDIT] is on (lit) or off (dark).<br />
[EDIT] will turn on or off each time you press it.<br />

System Mode<br />
This mode is for determining global XP-30 settings such as<br />
tuning, display contrast and how MIDI messages are<br />
received.<br />
* Some System mode parameters relate to an entire Patch or an<br />
entire Performance. To set these parameters, press [SYSTEM]<br />
in the selected mode (Patch or Performance).<br />
Utility/Card Mode<br />
Here you can save and transmit settings for the sound<br />
generator, and make settings related to memory cards.<br />
* [EDIT] switches the function of the function buttons, but<br />
pressing [EDIT] will not make the display change. If you wish<br />
to modify a setting, press the [EDIT] to make the indicator light,<br />
and then press a function button to select the display group and<br />
switch the display. When you finish making settings, press<br />
[EXIT] or a mode button to switch the display.<br />
In Performance Mode<br />
([EDIT] Indicator is Dark)<br />

Chapter 1<br />
* Some Utility/Card mode parameters relate to an entire Patch,<br />
Performance or Rhythm Set. To set these parameters, press<br />
[UTIL/CARD] in the selected mode (Patch, Performance or<br />
Rhythm Set).<br />
The function buttons will act as Part buttons ([PART]) that<br />
switch Parts on (lit) or off (dark). Since 16 Parts are being<br />
controlled using only 8 buttons, use [1-8/9-16] to select<br />
which set of Parts you are controlling. When [1-8/9-16]<br />
indicator is dark, you can switch Parts 1–8 on/off. When it is<br />
lit, you can switch Parts 9–16 on/off.<br />
If the [EDIT] indicator is turned off in the Part setting<br />
display, the function buttons will act as PART buttons that<br />
select the Part to be edited.<br />
* The function of the Part on/off setting will depend on the setting<br />
of the Key Mode parameter (PERFORM/COMMON/<br />
PERFORM COMMON) (p. 83).<br />
