When you want to find sounds, those two huge, vintage-looking knobs are your friends! They make it way
too easy to find the sound you9re looking for.
- If you want to play sounds within a specific style of music, turn the PROGRAM GENRE knob to the style
you want, then turn the PROGRAM CATEGORY knob to choose different sounds in that genre.
- If you want to find a certain type of sound, just choose it with the PROGRAM CATEGORY knob, then
turn the PROGRAM GENRE knob to get different examples of that instrument.
- Use the BANK SELECT toggle switch to get two different flavors for the genre/category you selected.
Note: There are 128 sounds total. You can overwrite any of them, and archive them in the editor/librarian
software.

Those preset sounds are great, but why leave well enough alone?
This is a Korg synth, my friend... that means the sounds are just begging to be customized.
- Use the OCTAVE toggle switch to jump up and down the octave range.
o Try playing a one-handed pattern while quickly switching the octave...lnstant solo!
- Try the three real-time control knobs on the right side!
- Turn the KNOB FUNCTION SELECT dial (to the right of the display) to select different functions for the
three real-time control knobs.
o The top row, ASSIGN, will change for every sound...This is where you9ll usually find the most useful
tweaks for each preset program!
o The bottom row is FULL EDIT. This is where you can pop the hood and get into deeper editing
parameters. If you9re creating your own sounds, you9l| have lots of fun here.
- Always try the Pitch Bend and Modulation wheels to unlock some cool changes to the sound.
