4. Selecting and executing menu
commands
The menu provides commands that are specific to each
page, such Write (save) or Copy. The available
functions will depend on the current page.
For example, the utility functions in Program mode let
you write (save) the settings, perform convenient
editing operations such as copying settings between
oscillators or effects, "Sync" EGs so that you can edit
two of them at once, and so on.
1. In the upper right of the display, press the menu
button.
A list of menu commands will appear.
2. Select a menu command by pressing it with your
finger.
A dialog box for the selected menu command will
appear. Check‐type commands will not display a
dialog box; their status will be switches, and the list
will close. By holding down the ENTER switch and
pressing a numeric key 0–9 you can access the dialog
box for the first ten utility functions without going
through the menu.
• To close the list without selecting a command, press
the display somewhere other than the list, or press
the EXIT switch.
3. For a parameter in a dialog box, select it by
pressing it with your finger, and use the VALUE
controllers (e.g., VALUE dial or Inc/Dec buttons) to
enter its value.
When selecting a program or combination number in a
dialog box, you can also use the BANK SELECT switch
to enter the bank as an alternative to using the VALUE
controllers.
4. To execute, press the OK button or the ENTER
switch. If you decide not to execute, press the
Cancel button or the EXIT button.
The dialog box will close.
5. Writing and saving
After you edit, you should write or save your changes
as necessary. For example if you've edited a program,
your changed will be lost if you select another program
or turn off the power. The same applies to a
combination. Settings you edit in Global mode will be
remembered as long as the power is on, but your
changes will be lost when you turn off the power.
