PERFORMANCE EDIT MODE

LAYER SELECTION & MUTING

LAYER SELECTION & MUTING

The display will return to the current edit screen as soon as you release the

[UTILITY/SELECT] key. The currently selected layer is shown in square

brackets in appropriate layer edit screens.

Programming  All  Layers  Simultaneously

In some cases you may want to set all the same parameters for all four

layers to the same value. This can be done easily by activating the “layer sync”

mode: press the [STORE/COPY] key while holding the [UTILITY/SELECT]

key. When the layer sync mode is active the current layer will appear as an

inverse character (A, B, C, or D) in the layer edit screens. Simply repeat this

procedure to return to the normal individual layer editing mode.

●

  Layer  Muting

It is also possible to mute (turn the sound off) specific layers while editing

so you can more easily hear the effect of parameter changes on the active

layers. Layers are muted or re-activated by using the [-1/NO], [+1/YES],

[ENTER], and [EXIT] keys while holding the [UTILITY/SELECT] key:

• [-1/NO] mutes or re-activates Layer A.

• [+1/YES] mutes or re-activates Layer B.

• [ENTER] mutes or re-activates Layer C.

• [EXIT] mutes or re-activates Layer D.

●

  Layer  Selection

Many functions in the performance edit mode allow a single layer to be

edited individually (see page 26 of the “Getting Started” section to learn about

peformance combinations and layers). The layer to be edited is selected by

using the [

,], [.], [PAGE], and [MEMORY] keys while holding the

[UTILITY/SELECT] key:

• [

,] selects Layer A.

• [

.] selects Layer B.

• [PAGE] selects Layer C.

• [MEMORY] selects Layer D.
