NOTES

❚

• When the keyboard is shipped from the factory, the user area (tones

200 to 231) contain the same tones as tones 128 through 159.

• You cannot use a drum set tone (192 to 199) as the basis of a user tone.
• Whenever you save a tone and assign it one of the tone numbers in the

user area, any tone data previously assigned to that number is replaced
with the new data.

• The keyboard comes with a built-in lithium battery that supplies power

to the memory to retain memory contents while keyboard power is turned
off. See “Lithium Battery Precautions” on page E-4 for important infor-
mation about the lithium battery.

• You can use the keyboard’s MIDI capabilities to save your original tones

to a computer or other external storage device. See “Bulk Sending Key-
board Data” on page E-65 for details.

• With the WK-1800, you can use the built-in disk drive to save original

tones to diskette. See “Using the Floppy Disk Drive (WK-1800 Only)” on
page E-67 for details.

Creating a User Tone

Use the following procedure to select a preset tone and change its
parameters to create a user tone.

1.

First, select the preset tone you want to use as a basis
for your user tone.

2.

Press the SYNTH button.

• This causes the indicator lamp next to the SYNTH button to

light and displays a screen that shows whether the tone you
selected is a DCO1 or DCO2 tone.

3.

Use [

̇ ] and [̈] to display the parameter whose set-

ting you want to change.

• Each press of [

̇] or [̈] changes to the next parameter. See

“Parameters and Their Settings” on this page for informa-
tion about each parameter.

4.

Use [+] and [–] to change the setting of the currently
displayed parameter.

• You can also use the number keys to input a value to change

a parameter setting. See “Parameters and Their Settings” be-
low for information on setting range for each parameter.

5.

If the preset tone you selected in step 1 is a 2DCO
tone, press [

̄] twice to display the DCO2 parame-

ters.

6.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 to set the DCO2 parameters.

• Press [

̆] two more times to return to the DCO1 parameters.

7.

Play something on the keyboard.

• To save the tone you created, perform the procedure under

“Naming a User Tone and Storing It In Memory” (page E-
35), starting from step 2.

• To exit user tone creation and return the tone to its original

parameters, press the SYNTH button twice or the TONE but-
ton once.
