Chapter 2. Sound Selecting And Editing Procedure; Selecting A Performance - Roland JP-8080 Owner's Manual

Chapter 2.
In this owner's manual, the process of modifying settings is referred to as "editing," and each of the settings
that can be changed are referred to as "parameters."
This chapter explains the basic operations of editing: select-
ing a performance/patch, and convenient functions for car-
rying out the editing process.

Selecting a Performance

Performances are organized into the following groups.
USER 64
PRESET1 64
PRESET2 64
PRESET3 64
CARD01 64
:
CARD32 64
:
CARD64 64
* In the case of a S2M-5 (2M bytes) memory card these
will be CARD01–32; in the case of a S4M-5 (4M bytes)
card these will be CARD01–64.
USER
This is the sound group inside JP-8080 which can be rewrit-
ten. Sounds you yourself create can be stored in this group.
With the factory settings, this contains the same perfor-
mances as Preset 2.
PRESET1–3
These are sound groups inside the JP-8080 which cannot be
rewitten.
CARD01–64
These groups use sounds from a memory card (optional)
inserted into the card slot.
Use these groups to store sounds for which there is no room
in the internal USER group. For details on using a memory
card, refer to p.128.
Performances are selected by specifying three items: group
(USER/PRESET1–3/CARD01–64), bank (1–8), and number
(1–8).

Press [PERFORM/PATCH SELECT] so that the

* You can also change performances by using [DEC]/[INC].
* P2: 83–P2: 86 contain performances which use the for-
mant filter. These should be played while inputting
vocals through the MIC jack or VOCAL/UPPER jack.
This is especially true in the case of P2:84 and P2:86—
they will not sound at all unless vocals are being input.
(p.103)
* P2: 87 is a performance which uses the external input. It
will not produce sound unless sound is input from the
EXT IN jacks. (p.26, 70)
* CARD sounds can be selected only if a memory card is
inserted into the CARD slot. (p.128)
* When selecting performances from a memory card, it is
not possible to select performances from a group to
which nothing has ever been written.
* For performance numbers and their content, refer to
"Performance List." (p.176)
