button.
[COMMAND/EXIT] + [F1]: turns all currently sounding notes off.

Special Button Functions

[COMMAND/EXIT] Button
The [COMMAND/EXIT] button can be used to open and close the command menu (page 177, 204). It can
also be used in conjunction with the function buttons to perform a range of shortcut operations (see previ-
ous section).
[ASSIGNABLE] Button
Functions you use frequently while playing can be assigned to this button. For example, it can be set up to
instantly turn all notes off, or reset all controllers. The [ASSIGNABLE] button and Knobs 2 — 5 can be used
for real-time control, and the [ASSIGNABLE] button and function buttons can be used to play the tone gen-
erator. The type of function assigned to the [ASSIGNABLE] button is determined via the UTILITY-SYSTEM-
KeysSet page (page 197).
[AUDITION] Button
Pressing the [AUDITION] button plays the currently selected sample. The {AUDITION] button will even play
samples which are not assigned to the currently selected program, so it can be used to check which sam-
ple is selected, and to monitor the sound of a sample being edited.
When a sample bank is selected, the [AUDITION] button sequentially plays all samples contained in that
sample bank each time it is pressed. The [AUDITION] will also play a selected sample stored on disk with-
out loading the sample into memory.

• When this operation is executed all memory contents are restored to the original factory settings.
