Chapter 3. Creating Your Own Sounds
■ Editing a Performance
Start with an existing Performance and edit it to create a new
Performance. But before you do, try to envision what the
entire Performance will sound like and decide which Patch to
assign to each of 16 Parts.
1. Press [PERFORM] to access the PERFORM PLAY
display, and select the Performance whose settings you
wish to modify (p. 51).
An asterisk (*) will be displayed at the left of the Performance
group. This shows Performance settings have been modified.
fig.3-13
* If you select another Performance in the group with an asterisk
(*), the modified Performance settings will be lost. If you wish to
keep these modified settings, you must write them into user
memory (p. 68).
2. Press [EDIT] to make the indicator light.
3. Use the function buttons to select the display group.
The button indicator of the selected display group will blink.

4. Use [ ] or [ ] to select a display page.
5. If you have selected a parameter display that can be set
independently for each Part, the number of the Part
selected for editing will be shown in the display. To
select a different Part, press [EDIT] to temporarily turn
off the indicator, and use [1-8/9-16] and the function
buttons to select a Part.

Editing Performance Using the Palette
Display
You can also edit a Performance using the Palette display in
Performance mode. When modifying Part settings for a
Performance, the values for eight Parts (Part 1–8 or Part 9–16)
will be displayed together on a single display. This is useful
when you wish to change parameter values while comparing
each Part settings.
1. When modifying a Part, use [ ] or [ ] to move the
cursor to the parameter you wish to modify.
2. Press [PALETTE EDIT] to call up the Palette display.

6. Use [ ] or [ ] to move the cursor to the parameter
you wish to modify.
7. Use the VALUE dial, [INC]/[DEC] or numeric keys and
modify the parameter value.
* If you’ve selected two or more Tones, your editing will modify
the parameter values for all selected Tones by the same amount.
* If you’ve made a mistake in setting the parameter value or you
don’t like the changes, just press [UNDO/COMPARE] to
restore the value to what it was.
8. If you wish to move to another display group, press
[EDIT] to make the indicator light, and use the function
buttons.
* You can also move to another display group by holding down
[SHIFT] and using [ ] or [ ]. Since this can be done even
when [EDIT] indicator is dark, it is a faster way to get around
because you don’t have to turn on [EDIT] indicator each time.
9. Repeat steps 3–8 to complete a Performance.
10. When you finish making settings, press [EXIT] or
[PERFORM] to return to the PERFORM PLAY display.
3. Press [ ] or [ ] to choose the Part to modify.
The Part number and the Patch name assigned to the Part
will be shown in the display.
* To switch between the palette page for parts 1–8 and the palette
page for parts 9–16, press [1-8/9-16].
4. Use the VALUE dial, [INC]/[DEC] or numeric keys to
change the parameter value.
* If you’ve made a mistake in setting the parameter value or you
don’t like the changes, press [UNDO/COMPARE] to restore
the value to what it was.
5. If you wish to edit other parameters, press [ ] or [ ] to
select the parameter that you wish to edit.
6. Repeat steps 3–5 to complete a Performance.
7. To cancel the palette display, press [PALETTE EDIT] to
make the button indicator go dark.
