Chapter 2 Creating Your Own Settings (Patches)

1. Turn the PARAMETER knob to “ASSIGN.”

fig.02-11

2. Press [SELECT] to select the parameter whose settings

you want to change.

The display indicators light up as shown below
according to the parameter being set.

fig.02-12

3. Press [PATCH/VALUE] to change the value.

* For more on the settings values that can be selected, refer to

the following section “Functions That Can Be Selected With
Assign (ASSIGN).”

4. If you want to save the settings, carry out the Write

procedure (p. 26).

* If you do not want to save the settings, turn the

PARAMETER knob to return to “PLAY MODE.”

5. When you have finished making the settings, turn the

PARAMETER knob to return to “PLAY MODE.”

Functions That Can Be Selected With
ASSIGN

The following describes the functions that can be assigned to
the controllers.

* When “POLY” is selected as the transmission mode, the Pitch

Bend/Glide and Vibrato function as follows.

When BEND RANGE (p. 23) is set to anything other than
Chromatic, Pitch Bend/Glide changes in semitone steps when
chords are played, and Vibrato does not function. These
function normally when you play notes individually.

When patches are switched, no signal is transmitted to
restore the Control Change value transmitted with the
previous patch. Therefore, if the same assign settings are
used for both of the patches prior to and following the
switch, the status of the controllers is carried over. However,
if the assign settings are different for the patch you are
switching to, you cannot restore the value for the Control
Change transmitted with the earlier patch, so you will need
to be aware of the following.

(Example)

The volume of a patch with CC 7 (Volume) assigned to the
expression pedal is lowered to the minimum level. After this,
if you switch to a patch with a different assign setting, since
CC 7 (Volume) is not controlled in that patch, no sound is
output, even when you press the expression pedal.
