H ASSIGN SW section
[ASSIGN¥SW¥1] and [ASSIGN¥SW¥2] are assignable
buttons. You can use them to directly access fre-
quently used functions that are only available via the
function menu. The ASSIGN SW assignments belong
to the settings that can be written to a User Program.
If you don’t change their assignment, they can be
used to trigger the FADE IN and FADE OUT functions.
I STYLE CONTROL section
Use these buttons to select the desired Music Style
pattern, and to start/stop Music Style playback (see
p. 25).
J USER PROGRAM section
These buttons allow you to select the desired User
Program (registration memory). You can also select
the previous ([DOWN]) or next ([UP]) User Program.
By pressing these two buttons simultaneously, you
leave the User Program environment.
The [HOLD] button allows you to ignore several set-
tings of subsequently loaded User Programs (see
p. 115).
K LCD CONTRAST knob
Use this knob to adjust the display’s contrast if it is
difficult to read. The display itself is a touch screen
and therefore needs to be clear at all times (so that
you know what you are doing).
Note: The display may take some time to warm up. That is why
you may have to change the contrast several times after pow-
ering on.
L MUSIC ASSISTANT button
Press this button to access the MUSIC ASSISTANT
environment where you can select Music Style regis-
trations for a given song you want to play. You can
also program your own Music Assistant registrations.
M LYRICS & SCORE button
Press this button if you want the lyrics contained in
the songs to appear in the display. At the same time,
the chords of the notes played by the song parts will
also be displayed. This, however, is information that is
“extracted” (derived) in realtime by the G-70. This
function can even display the notes of the selected
part as a score.
N EFFECTS button
This button provides access to the display pages
where you can set the effects parameters of the
G-70’s parts.
O DISK & MEDIA button
Press this button if you wish to save/load data from a
the internal memory, a floppy disk or PCM/CIA card.
You will also find data management functions here,
like deleting files, formatting floppies or cards, etc.
(page 203).
P COVER button
This button provides access to pre-programmed tem-
plates that allow you to quickly modify a song’s or
Music Style’s character. Press it once or twice to
select the Song or Style level. See pages 41 and 77.
Q MAKEUP TOOLS button
Press this button to modify the settings of the cur-
rent song or Music Style, if the pre-programmed
Cover settings do not provide what you’re looking
for. See page 124.
