EDITING PROCEDURE – PATCH MODE
1. Push the PATCH of the Edit buttons
The indicator of the PATCH button lights up showing that it is now in the Editing mode. The Display changes to
as shown below.
2. Using the Ten Keys, assign the number of the Factor whose value is to be changed.
As shown right, push the key in a correct order, then hit the Enter Key.
3. Using the α Dial, change the value as you like. It may be necessary to actually listen to the sound while
changing the value.
4. To continue to edit other Factor, repeat the step 2 and 3.
It is also possible to use the a Dial for calling a Factor. After pushing the PARAM button, rotate the α Dial, and the
Factor shown in the Display will change in sequence. When the Factor you wish to edit appears in the Display,
push the VALUE of the Edit Buttons, then change the value with the α Dial.
This method is useful for when you are editing the Factor of close number. However, to continue to edit other
Factor, be sure to push the PATCH then the PARAM buttons, then call the Factor you want by using the α Dial.
When you have completed editing the Patch Memory, push the PATCH button. The indicator of the PATCH goes
out and the display returns to the usual indication except that the Bank and the Number of the Patch Memory flash
showing that the Patch Memory is edited but not yet written into memory. If you call other Patch Memory at this
stage, the edited Patch Memory will be erased.
b. Editing a Tone
A Tone consists of various parameters. Like any usual synthesizer, the JX-10 allows editing these parameters for
sound synthesis. The JX-10, however, does not feature knobs of switches on its panel for you to touch or move.
Instead, there are two methods of synthesizing. One is calling each parameter and changing the value. This
method does not allow to edit more than one parameter at a time, so may be used for making a slight edit during
live performance, etc. The other method is using the optional programmer PG-800 which works just like the panel
controls on the usual synthesizer. For quicker and easier editing or synthesis from scratch, the PG-800 may be
essential.
Editing with the Programmer PG-800
1.
As shown, set up the programmer and the JX-10 using the 6P DIN cable.
The PG-800 works just like the control panel of a usual synthesizer, that is, you
can edit the existing Tone or make a complete new Tone from scratch, by
actually using the tangible sliders, knobs and buttons. The PG-800 does not work
when the JX-10 is set to the Writing mode.
In the Display, the Tone numbers of the Patch Memory currently selected are
shown, and a dot is shown at the lower corner of either Tone number. Always,
the Tone number with a dot at the lower corner can be edited. So, it is necessary
to make sure that a dot is seen at the corner of the Tone number which you wish
