Make sure that the Play/Record screen is showing. If not, press
MAIN SCREEN.
To change the data in a data field, move the cursor to the field and
type in the new number using the numeric keypad, followed by
ENTER. For example, to change to sequence number 2:
1. Move the cursor to the Seq field in the upper left corner;
2. Type 2, followed by the ENTER key.
Notice that the sequence name (located immediately to the right of
the sequence number) now changes automatically, because it must
now display the name of sequence 2.

options presented on the screen. For example, pressing the PRO-

Play/Record screen.
