Executing Functions; Command Selection - Yamaha A4000 Owner's Manual

3. Basic Operation

Executing Functions

In most display pages you'll see labels such as "1>TREE," "2>LIST," or "3>QUICK" immediately above
certain knobs. These indicate functions which can be engaged by pressing the corresponding knob. In some
display pages with multiple lines, however, these functions may change according to the selected display
line.
When the top line is selected in the EDIT mode FILTER function Filter & EQ page, for example, pressing
Knob 2 engages the "2>LIST" function, displaying a list of the available filter types.

Command Selection

The A5000/A4000 features a selection of "commands" covering a range of functions not included in the
modes. The commands are accessed by pressing the [COMMAND/EXIT] button: a command "menu" will
appear when the button is pressed. The command menu which appears when the [COMMAND/EXIT] but-
ton is pressed from the DISK mode differs from that which appears when the [COMMAND/EXIT] button
is pressed from any other mode (except the RECORD mode — no commands are accessible from the
RECORD mode).
• Commands which can only be accessed via the DISK mode are described in "Chapter 7: DISK
Mode" (page 177). All other commands are described in "Chapter 9: COMMAND" (page 204).

Command menu (from SONG, EDIT, UTILITY mode)
To select a command from the menu, first use Knob 1 to select the line containing the command to be
selected, then press the knob (2 — 5) below the command.
To select the INIT (Initialize) command, for example, use Knob 1 to highlight line 2, then press Knob 5.
