Performance Play mode
Using a microphone and other audio device sounds
One of the enormous benefits of the Performance mode is that you can have the A/D input sound—such as your voice
through a microphone, a guitar, bass, or CD player—assigned as one of the four Parts of a Performance. Various parameters
such as volume, pan, and effect can be set to this Part and the sound is output together with other Parts. These parameters
are set and stored in the Performance Store mode for each Performance.
