1. Use the next and previous arrow‐buttons at the

1. Press the front‐panel PROG button (the LED will
light) to enter Program mode.
The upper left of the LCD screen shows the name of
the current page, PROGRAM P0: Play. This is a good
home base for playing Programs.
Notice the large, highlighted characters in the upper
part of the LCD display. These are the name and
number of the current Program. When these are
highlighted, you can press the
the next or previously numbered Program.
You can also turn the VALUE dial to move through the
Programs in larger steps, or enter Program numbers
directly from the numeric keypad.
2. Use the BANK SELECT I‐A...G and U‐A...G
buttons to select Programs from other banks.
Each Slot can play either a Program, a Combination, or
a Song. When you change the Type, the Bank &
Number and Category or Track parameters will
update accordingly. Category appears for Programs
and Combinations; Track appears for Songs.
4. Using either the Bank & Number or Category
Note that you can use the same sound in multiple Slots
within the same Set List. For instance, you might have
a favorite piano sound which you use in a number of
different songs. You can create any number of Slots
which use this same piano sound, each with different
names and comments.
