Chapter 9. Getting More Familiar with the XV-88 (System Functions)

Functions related to the XV-88's overall operating
environment, including the display contrast, tuning, the way
MIDI messages are received, and so on, are called System
functions. This section explains how to make settings for the
System functions and describes the functions of the different
System parameters.
How to Make the System
Function Settings
1. Press [SYSTEM] to make the indicator light.
The [EDIT] indicator lights simultaneously, and the XV-
88 is put into System mode.
2. Use the function buttons to select a display group.
The indicator for the button of the selected display group
begins blinking.

3. Use
or to select a display page.
4. Use
or to move the cursor to the parameter you
wish to modify.
5. Use the VALUE dial, [INC/+]/[DEC/-], or the numeric
keys to modify the parameter value.
If you've made a mistake in setting the parameter value,
press [UNDO/COMPARE] to restore the value to what
it was.
6. Repeat steps 2–5 to make the settings for the System
function.
7. When you finish making settings, press [EXIT] or
[SYSTEM] to return to the previous page.
System function settings are saved the instant a change is
made in any of the parameter values. Therefore, no
changes to the settings are lost, even when the power is
turned off, and no other save procedures are necessary.

LCD (LCD Contrast)
Adjusts the contrast (brightness) of the display. Increasing
this value will increase the contrast of the display.
Power Up Mode
Specifies the condition that the XV-88 will be in when the
power is turned on.
LAST-SET: Reinstates the Patch and Performance selected at
the time the XV-88 was last turned off.
DEFAULT: The XV-88 will be ready to play Patch
"USER:001."
Master Level
Adjusts the volume of the entire XV-88.
Clock Source (System Clock Source)
The LFO cycle, Multi-effects changes, Phrase Loop, and Tone
Delay time can be synchronized to a clock (tempo). When
synchronizing these to the System's Tempo Clock, either
synchronize to the internal clock (INT) or to an external clock
(MIDI).
For details on using clock (tempo), refer to (p. 200).
