The upper right of the display will indicate the number of the

parameter (PERFORM/PART/PATCH).

PLAY display.
■ Using the Sliders to Modify the
Sound in Realtime
(Sound Palette Function)
Using the Sound Palette function , you can modify sound
characters of the Patch assigned to a Part or adjust the
volume level of each Part.
* Sound variations or volume changes made with the Sound
Palette function affect only the performance. They have no effect
on the currently selected Performance, so the Sound Palette
settings cannot be saved. If you change the Performance, these
settings will be lost.
* The sound character and volume changes created using the
Sound Palette will also be transmitted to the external MIDI
devices.
Changing Sound Characters
* If Single Performance is selected, the effect applies only to the
current Part. With Layer Performance selected, this affects only
the Parts with Local parameter (PERFORM/MIDI/MIDI) set
ON.
