ABOUT VOICE EDITING
Broadly speaking, there are two ways to edit voices.
(1) Partially modify an existing voice to create a new
voice.
(2) Create a completely new voice from scratch.
When first learning how to edit voices, it will be easier
to start with method (1). You can modify internal, card,
or preset voices. Remember that the voice you create
can be stored only as an internal voice or card voice.
(It is not possible to store a voice into preset voice me-
mory.)
When using method (1), enter single play mode and
select the voice you want to edit. When using method
(2), you must first create an "initialized" voice using the
OTHERS] function "Init" (initialize) (see page 117).
Note:
After editing a voice, do not forget to store it (see
page 119). If after editing a voice, you select another
voice without storing the voice you edited, your edits
will be replaced by the previous voice data. However,
you can recall the data you were editing by using the
recall function in [OTHERS] (see page 117).
Initialized voice
"Initialized" means that many of the settings are set
to their minimum or most basic value. The initialized
voice will produce the simplest possible sound (a sine
wave) from operator 1.
While editing a voice, you can compare the results of
your editing with the original voice by using the
"compare" function (see page 121).

When an operator is turned off, that operator will not
produce a signal. This means that if you turn all four
operators off, there will be no sound at all.
Turning an operator on/off is often useful when you
need to check the sound of just one operator, or check
the effect of an operator that is acting as a modulator.
Note:
This operator on/off function is provided as a con-
venience when editing. It is not posible to store a voice
with an operator turned off. (The voice will be stored
with all operators turned on.) If a certain operator
is unnecessary in the voice you are creating, you can
set its output level to 0 (see page 48).
