of the screen.

Press the [EXIT] button to leave the edit screen.
The changes you make are temporary; they will be discarded
when you turn off the power or select a different tone. If you
want to keep the changes you make, you must write them into
memory (p. 62).
When you use Patch Edit to modify the settings, an "*" will
appear next to the tone name in the main screen. The "*" will
disappear when you save that tone (p. 62).
Description
Specifies the volume of the tone.
Specifies whether the portamento effect
will be applied (ON) or not (OFF).
* Portamento is an effect which smoothly
changes the pitch from the first-played
key to the next-played key. By applying
portamento when the Mono/Poly is
"MONO," you can simulate slide
performance techniques on a violin or
similar instrument.
When portamento is used, this specifies
the time over which the pitch will change.
Higher settings will cause the pitch
change to the next note to take more
time.
Specifies whether the patch will play
polyphonically (POLY) or monophonically
(MONO).
The "MONO" setting is effective when
playing a solo instrument patch such as
sax or flute.
MONO: Only the last-played note will
sound.
POLY: Two or more notes can be played
simultaneously.
Specifies the degree of pitch change in
semitones when the pitch bend lever is all
the way right.
For example, if this parameter is set to
"+12," the pitch will rise one octave when
the pitch bend lever is moved to the right-
most position.
Specifies the degree of pitch change in
semitones when the pitch bend lever is all
the way left.
For example if this is set to "-48" and you
move the pitch bend lever all the way to
the left, the pitch will fall 4 octaves.
