F1: Custom Voice Edit

The Custom Voice Edit mode allows you to edit any of the PSR-6000 voices to
create new sounds that ideally match your own music style. 128 custom voices can
be programmed, each based on the corresponding preset voice.
After selecting the voice you want to edit (see "NOTES" below), engage the Cus-
tom Voice Edit mode by pressing the [FUNCTION] button and then the F1 CUS-
TOM VOICE EDIT LCD button. Use the various editing functions described below
to modify the sound to suit your needs. Then press the [EXIT] button when you're
finished editing to return to the normal play mode.
Your custom voices can be selected and played by pressing the [CUSTOM
VOICE] button and using the VOICE SELECT buttons in the normal way.
NOTES
• You can also select a different voice while the Custom Voice Edit mode is engaged via the VOICE SELECT
buttons. In this case the normal custom voice selection display will appear while the VOICE SELECT
buttons are being used, and for a few seconds afterwards. The display will then revert to the previous
Custom Voice Edit display page.
• Please note that some voices may suddenly shift to a different octave or change in level when played on
the highest or lowest keys. There may also be slight tonal changes at one or more points on the keyboard.
• Some settings may produce noise or no sound.
Standard Voice Edit Functions
The following functions are available when editing voice groups 1 through 10. Different edit functions are
provided for the PSR-6000 dual voices (group 11 — DUAL VOICE/SOUND EFFECT) and drum voices (group 12
— DRUMS).

NAME/CONTROL

The NAME/CONTROL page includes the NAME
function via which you can give your custom voice
an original name, and the TOUCH SENSITIVITY
and PITCH BEND parameters which define the
operation of the two most fundamental keyboard
control features.

NAME

The NAME function allows an 8-character name
to be assigned to the voice.
Use the < > LCD dial to move the name cursor
to the various character positions, then use the A~Z,
a~z, or 0~9.. LCD dial to select the required
character for each position. The A~Z LCD dial
selects capital letters, the a~z LCD dial selects
lower-case letters, and the 0~9.. LCD dial selects
