ProGraM lIst, aBc aNd cat

the LIST (shift + Program dial) view provides great overview when
browsing programs linearly (Num selected in the display) but also pre-
sents two additional sort modes: Abc (Program 2) and Cat (Program 3).
Abc sorts the list alphabetically while Cat will display all programs of the
selected category. to select a specific character or category, hold down
the Abc or Cat soft button respectively (as indicated by the "6" symbol)
and use the dial.

NUMErIc Pad NavIGatIoN ModE

there are two distinct options for how programs and banks are navigat-
ed: the default "Page based" mode and the Numeric Pad mode. Which
mode is used is determined in the system Menu (see page 26).
In Numeric Pad mode the Program 1-4 buttons are used for entering
any program number (11-44) within the current bank, rather than directly
switching between the 4 programs on a page. as an example, to select
program 12 within the current bank, first press Program button 1 (to
select page 1) and then Program button 2 (to select program 2 within
that page). Here are some additional points to keep in mind:
• In Numeric Pad mode the PAGE buttons switch between banks.
• the Program dial can be used for switching programs incrementally,
just as in Page Based mode.
• a "num" symbol in the top right corner of the display indicates that
Numeric Pad navigation is active.

MIdI lEd INdIcator

the MIDI lEd, located in the top right corner of the Program
section, blinks as incoming MIdI messages are received by the
MIdI In port, or over UsB.

PaGE BUttoNs

Program pages – or banks, when in Numeric Pad
navigation mode – are navigated with the PAGE 3/4
buttons. Each bank (a-Z) holds 4 pages, with 4 pro-
grams in each page. they are also used for navigating
menu settings, and for moving between categories/
characters when browsing lists in cat or abc mode.

orGaNIZE

the ORGANIZE (shift + Program 4) view allows for moving or "swap-
ping" programs within the program banks. this can be done either on a
per-program basis when the Prog view is focused, or an a page basis –
handling sets of 4 programs at a time – when Page view is selected.
Page operations are especially useful when preparing a set list or similar,
as groups of programs that are used within the same song can then be
arranged in a specific order.
