sound generator

Editing the parameters

Parameters can be controlled from the SD-80's panel only in

GM2 mode

and

Native mode

.

Of the parameters that can be controlled from the SD-80, only MFX settings that were edited in Native
mode can be saved within the SD-80 as a user patch (

"Saving a patch"

(p. 50)).

Chorus/reverb settings and part parameters will be lost when the SD-80 is powered-off. We recommend
that you store these settings in a sequencer program or on an external MIDI sequencer, by using
individual data transmission (

"Writing/loading SD-80 settings"

(p. 69)).

Editing part parameters

You can change the way in which the sound selected for a part will be heard, to adjust the sound ideally
for your performance. Part parameters include parameters that adjust the

tonal character
