Alternate Voice Selection Methods
● = and - Buttons
These are best for small, step-wise changes —
e.g. selecting adjacent voice numbers, or
numbers that are only a few steps away. Press
the = or - key briefly to decrement or
increment the voice number by one, or hold
either key for continuous decrementing or
incrementing in the corresponding direction.
The bank will switch automatically if you
cross a bank voice-number boundary.
● Data Dial
The data dial provides a fast, efficient way to
cover a broad range of voice numbers when,
for example, you’re looking for a voice but
don’t know the voice number. Simply rotate
the data dial clockwise for higher voice
numbers or counter-clockwise for lower voice
numbers while watching the display. The
banks are automatically switched when neces-
sary as the voice numbers are changed.
● Using the Voice Directory
Although the voice directory appears automatically any time you select a bank, you
can have the directory displayed continuously if you find it more convenient than the
normal voice display. To switch to the voice directory display, press the • button —
located directly below “
Dir
” on the display. Voices are selected using the same methods
described above, and the cursor will move to the selected voice.
To return to the normal voice display press the ] or P button.
