Moving the Knobs changes various aspects of the
Voice’s sound in real time—while you play.
When one of the TONE 1, TONE 2 or ARP FX lamps are
lit, the eight Knobs are used to control the
corresponding functions as printed on the panel (the
same as in the Voice mode). For details, see page 90.
When one of the REVERB, CHORUS or PAN lamps are
lit, the following functions are assigned to the four
leftmost Knobs.

n If the [E] (Edit) indicator appears at the top right of the

display when you adjust the Knobs, the current

Performance can be stored (page 142) as a new User

Performance.

Using Sliders

The far left four sliders adjust the volume for each of four
Parts. Each of the Control Sliders 1 – 4 corresponds to the
same numbered Part. The status of the sliders is shown on
the display.

The Performance Play display

You can call up the Performance Play display by pressing
the [PERFORM] button.

Category. The Category settings can be edited in the
General display (page 143) of the Performance Common
Edit mode.
