Front Panel

Control Wheel
This is the key to RY30's remarkably intuitive
programming capabilities. The control wheel can
be used while programming in the RY30 real-
time record (page 21), step record (page 24),
parameter record (page 28), or clock move (page
30) modes to modify the pitch, decay, panning,
filter cutoff frequency, wave balance, or timing of
a selected instrument.
Parameter Selector
This selector determines the parameter to be
modified by the control wheel in the real-time
record, step record, and parameter record modes.
The wheel is used to modify timing when the
clock move mode is used.
[VOLUME] Control
Adjusts the volume of the sound delivered via
the rear-panel OUTPUT (L/MONO and R) jacks
and the PHONES jack.
The Controls & Connectors
[DATA] Control
The fast, easy way to select patterns or songs,
change the tempo values, edit voice parameter
values, and more. In general, moving the
[DATA] control upward (away from you) in-
creases the value of the selected parameter,
while downward movement decreases the value.
Fine single-step adjustments can be carried out
using the [INC] and [DEC] keys.
Liquid Crystal Display Panel (LCD)
This 24-character x 2-line backlit liquid crystal
display panel shows all the titles, parameters,
and prompts you need to operate the RY30 with
optimum ease and efficiency. In the RY30, each
screen full of information is known as a display
"page," and the various display pages in each
mode are accessed via the [PAGE–] and
[PAGE+] keys or the [PAGE] key, described
below.
