Using the Jobs

Using the Jobs

You can perform various operations (Jobs) in the Job mode. For example, you can initialize Voices/Multis to their
original settings (including those currently being edited) or copy Elements/Parts.

Job (PAGE)

The numbers in each column indicate the display
PAGE corresponding to the Job parameters.

Resetting (initializing) parameters
of a Voice/Multi to their default

This is useful for setting up a “blank slate” when you
want to build a completely new Voice/Multi from
scratch. Keep in mind that this does not return the
Multi to its original state prior to editing.
