SP4 V2 Addendum
Program Mode and Setup Mode
Program Mode and Setup Mode
The Save Button
The Save button is used to save edited programs and setups to the Program mode or Setup
mode User‐bank (see the SP4 Musician's Guide for details). New in the V2 OS is the ability to
delete single User‐bank programs and setups by using the Save button.
To delete a User‐bank program or setup, first select the program or setup that you wish to delete
in the User‐bank of Program mode or Setup mode. Next, press the Save button, then press the
Chan/Param up button twice. The display will read "Delete xxx ?" (xxx will be the ID number of
the program or setup being deleted). To finish, press the Next button below the display and the
program or setup will be deleted. The display will show the ID number of the program or setup
that was deleted followed by "Empty".
Deleting User‐bank programs and setups is useful in combination with the new "Load (fill)"
dialogue (see The "Load (fill)" Dialogue on page 4 for details.) For example, you could delete
certain User‐bank programs and setups that you no longer use by using the Save button, then
use the "Load (fill)" dialogue to load previously saved User‐bank programs and setups into the
Empty User‐bank IDs.
Group Favorites
Using The Group Select Buttons
In Program mode and Setup mode, you can browse through groups of eight programs or eight
setups by first selecting a Bank with the Bank select button, then selecting one of the Group
Select buttons (these buttons are located to the right of the display). After selecting a group with
one of the Group Select buttons, one of the eight programs or setups in the group can be
selected by pressing one of the eight Sound Select buttons (located to the right of the display,
below the Group Select buttons). In Program mode, the eight programs in each group match the
instrument type of the group name (Piano, String, Synth, etc.) In Setup mode, the eight setups in
each group do not always match the instrument type of the group name, but the Group Select
buttons can still be used to browse through groups of eight setups.
See Chapter 3 in the SP4 Musician's Guide for a more complete overview of how to select
programs and setups in the SP4.
Setting Group Favorites
In Program mode and Setup mode, you can set one of the eight programs or setups in each
group as a favorite program or setup. A favorite program or setup is the program or setup that
is automatically selected when a group is selected using one of the Group Select buttons. For
example, in Program mode you could set the program "10 Classic Wurly" as a favorite program
that will automatically be selected when you press the E. Piano Group Select button in Bank 1.
To set a favorite program or setup for the currently selected group, first press one of the eight
Sound Select buttons (to the right of the display) to choose the favorite program or setup for
that group. Next press the Global mode Function button to enter Global mode, then press the
Program mode Function button or Setup mode Function button to return to Program mode or
Setup mode. Favorite programs and setups are automatically stored when exiting Global mode.
After exiting Global mode, favorite programs and setups will be remembered by the SP4 even if
it is powered off.
