Assigning a Name

live set, studio set, song, phrase, or sample when you save it.
Regardless of the type of object you're naming, the procedure is the
same.

Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to the position at which
you want to enter a character.

character that you want to enter.

• [F7 (Cancel)]: Cancels the name entry procedure.
• [F8 (OK)]: Confirms the name.
