Initializing Sound Generator
Settings (INIT)
This function resets settings of the current Performance,
Patch, or Rhythm Set to a standard value or to factory default
settings.
The Initialize operation affects only the currently
selected data; no data stored in the user memory is
initialized. If you wish to restore all of the XV-88's
settings to their factory values, perform a Factory Reset
(p. 191).
Mode (Initialize Mode)
There are two initialize methods. Select either of them
depending on the application.
DEFAULT: Resets the current data to the standard values
called "Initial data" (INIT PATCH, INIT PERFORM or INIT
RHYTHM). Use this setting when you wish to create a sound
from scratch.
PRESET: Resets the current data in user memory to the
factory settings.
If the current data is a Performance, Patch or Rhythm Set
in preset memory (PR-A–F), and initialization is
performed with PRESET specified, the data will be reset
to the value of the correspondingly numbered user
memory.

Initializing a Rhythm Set

To initialize Rhythm Set settings, press [UTILITY] in Rhythm
Set mode and execute initialization.
The Rhythm Set Initialize operation can also be used to
initialize the settings of only an individual Rhythm Tone
(percussion instrument sound) that you specify. In this case,
move the cursor to "Key," and select the Rhythm Tone that
you wish to initialize. You can specify the key (Rhythm
Tone) to be initialized via the keyboard or by pressing TONE
SELECT [1]–[4].

Transmitting Sound Settings
(XFER)
You can transmit sound generator or System settings that are
in the XV-88's memory, or are stored on a memory card to an
external MIDI device or to the XV-88's user memory.
Transmitting Data to an External
MIDI Device
The process of transmitting Performance, Patch, Rhythm Set
or System data to an external MIDI device is called a bulk
dump. You can perform a bulk dump when two XV-88s are
connected to each other, or when you wish to store Patch,
Performance, Rhythm Set or System data on an external
MIDI device as a safety backup of your XV-88 data.
