Selecting Patches by Category
(Patch Search Function)
The XP-30 provides a Patch Search function which allows
you to specify a type (category) of Patch so that you can
quickly find the desired Patch. There are a total of 38
categories.
1. Press [PATCH] to call up the PATCH PLAY display.
2. Press [CATEGORY] to turn the Patch Search function is
on.
The patch number display will change to the category
display.
* Now you can select patches within the currently selected
category either by rotating the VALUE dial or by using [INC]/
[DEC]. To change the category group, use the numeric keys.
If you wish to select patches from a different category,
continue with the following procedure.
3. Hold down [CATEGORY] and press a key [0]–[9]
(numeric keys) to select the category group.

* Now if you press [ ] the following display will appear, and you
can select patches while viewing the number of patches (a)
included in the currently selected category, and the order of this
patch among the patches (b) that were selected after the search.

Express Patch Select (Digit Hold)
With the Digit Hold function turned on, the 100’s
position and 10’s position will be fixed when the
numeric keys are used to select a Patch. This means that
the numeric keys will only change the 1’s position, and
you won’t have to press [ENTER] for each selection.
The same applies to selecting Performances and
Rhythm Sets.
1. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [ENTER] to turn on
Digit Hold.
fig.2-02
The numbers in the 100’s position and 10’s position will
be displayed in a smaller size to indicate Digit Hold is
on.
2. When you enter a numeric key number, the 1’s
position will change immediately without having
to press [ENTER].
3. To turn off Digit Hold, hold down [SHIFT] and
press [ENTER] once again.
