The XV-3080 works great as a performance
synthesizer (when connected to a MIDI keyboard or
other MIDI controller). You can use the XV-3080 in
patch mode to play single sounds, or performance
mode can be used to allow you to access more
complex setups (up to 16-part layers and splits). Use
the following procedure to audition some great
performances from a MIDI keyboard:
1. On the XV-3080, press PERFORMANCE, then
use the VALUE DIAL to select the "User 01:
Andreas Cave."
2. On the MIDI keyboard, set the MIDI transmit
channel to 1.
Note: The XV-3080 defaults to MIDI channel 1 for all
64 User Performances, as well as when in patch
mode.
Check out the following cool Performances:
User 09: Slicing Svox
User 24: Crystal VoxXV
User 32: XV Sweep Pad
User 38: Organ Split 1
User 54: Dyno Rhs+Bs

When sequencing, it is usually desirable to be able to
access the XV-3080 on several different MIDI
channels. This allows you to control many sounds
separately. Use the following procedure to set up the
XV-3080 for this type of use:
1. Connect the MIDI out of your sequencer to the
MIDI in of the XV-3080.
2. Press PERFORMANCE on the XV-3080, then
use the VALUE DIAL to select "PR-A: 01-
SEQ:TEMPLATE." This performance is set up for
sequencing and allows you to use up to 16 parts
(Patches) on 16 different MIDI channels.
Selecting Sounds
You can now select sounds from your sequencer
using program change and bank select commands,
or you can manually select the sounds from the
XV-3080. In most cases, it is preferable to select the
sounds from your sequencer as this will allow you to
easily save these settings with your song. If you wish
to select sounds directly from the XV-3080, use the
following procedure:
1. While holding PERFORMANCE, press PATCH.
You will notice "Part=1" in the right hand side of
the display. This means that the patch you are
viewing is on MIDI channel 1.
2. Select a patch (as discussed previously).
3. Press the RIGHT CURSOR (
"Part=2." Select a patch for MIDI channel 2.
4. Repeat step 3 to select patches for all 16 MIDI
channels.
Note: Normally, part 10 (MIDI channel 10) is set up
as the rhythm part.
