Basic Operation
Naming (Inputting Characters)
You can freely name the data you've created, such as
Voices, Performances, Songs, Patterns and files saved to a
USB storage device.
When the cursor is located on such a naming parameter, the
CHAR icon appears at the lower right corner of the display.
When pressing the [SF6] button in this status, the Input
Character window appears as shown below. In the Edit area,
you can move the cursor to determine the location at which
the character is to be input by using the [F1] and [F2]
buttons. In the Character List, you can move the cursor to
determine the character to be input by using the Cursor
buttons, [INC/YES] button, [DEC/NO] button and the data
dial. After selecting the character, press the [F4] button to
actually enter the selected character to the location
specified in the Edit area. To delete the character at the
cursor location, press the [F5] Delete button. To delete all the
characters, press the [F6] All Clear button. After completing
the character input, press the [ENTER] button to actually
enter the currently edited name.
Editing area
Calling up the List
Depending on the parameter, you can call up a convenient
pop-up List by pressing the [SF6] LIST button, from which
you can select the desired parameter setting or item. When
the cursor is located on such a parameter (indicated with an
upside down triangular arrow), the LIST icon appears at the
lower right corner of the display. In this condition, press the
[SF6] button to call up the List. To select the desired item or
setting, use the [INC/YES], [DEC/NO] buttons and the data
dial. After selecting, press the [ENTER] button to fix the
selection and close the List.

Character List
Note (Key) and Velocity settings
Several parameters let you set a key range or velocity range
for a function—for example, in setting up a keyboard split—
by specifying certain note values. You can use the [INC/YES]
and [DEC/NO] buttons or data dial to set these parameters,
or you can directly enter the values from the keyboard by
pressing the appropriate keys.
When the cursor is located on such a parameter, the KBD
icon appears at the lower right corner of the display. You can
set the note or velocity directly from the Keyboard, by
holding down the [SF6] button and pressing the desired key.
This indicates that you can call up the List by pressing the
[SF6] LIST button.
The List appears. You can select one from this List.
