Various blocks are arranged in the Edit window. First, let's set the parameters for Elements 1 to
4 on the Element block which make up the voice. Open the dialogs for Elements 1 to 4, select
the waveforms, and adjust the tonal characteristics of the voice using the filters and
equalizers. You can use the graph editors in each dialog to visually edit the parameters.
n
You can edit the Element parameters in much finer detail within the "EL DETAIL" dialogs. The Element
dialogs are linked to the "EL DETAIL" dialogs, so changes in one dialog are immediately reflected in the
other. You can simultaneously view the graphs and the "EL DETAIL" dialogs side-by-side while editing.
n
Also within the Element Unit, you can set the output level for each Element and the route their outputs
through Insertion Effects 1/2.

Use [Quick Edit] to adjust the all the levels and tonal characteristics for the voices.

Click the "Store" button in the toolbar of the Edit Window to open the "Store" dialog. This will
store the edits for the current voice in the Library file.
n
The edits for the voice are only stored in the Library file temporarily. Beware that if you proceed further
without saving the Library file itself, you will lose all your edits.
10
Switch back to the Library Window and click the "Save" button in the toolbar to save
(overwrite) the Library file. The edits for your voice will be saved with the voice itself in the
designated voice list location.
n
The Library file you have saved can be opened in the Library Window at any time. Voices in the Library
Window can be transmitted to your synthesizer.
n
You can create a variety of different Library files, each tailored for separate applications, such as live
performances, recording, etc. Thus, you can conveniently modify voices to suit different situations and
needs.
