Editing the volume and Reverb Send
levels
Though most sound parameter can only be edited using
the dedicated “AX-Synth Editor” software and a com-
puter, you can change the volume and Reverb Send lev-
els of the Tones on the AX-Synth itself and save those
changes to a FAVORITE memory.
Note:
The two parameters discussed here are not available for
SuperNATURAL or SPECIAL Tones.
Note:
All parameters of the AX-Synth can be edited using the
dedicated “AX-Synth Editor” software. This software can be
downloaded free of charge from Roland’s website (http://
www.Roland.com).
