When you select a Program in normal Play Mode, or when using the Category Select function, press the AUDITION
button to hear a pre-programmed musical phrase - this is a great way to hear how the sound you've selected will work
in performance or recording applications. Note that the phrase even responds to tweaking of the selected sound with the
