3. The Performance Mode

The SY85 PERFORMANCE mode makes it possible to combine up to four
voices in "performance combinations" that significantly enhance the instru-
ment's performance capabilities. 128 performance combinations can be stored in
internal memory and recalled in the same way as the voices. Before we look at
how you can create your own performance combinations, try selecting and
playing some of the combinations provided with the SY85.

Play the Internal Performance Combinations

The SY85 can access three different performance memories - INTERNAL
1, INTERNAL 2, and CARD.
