About This Manual
The purpose of this manual is to help you quickly master the operation of your
SU10. Although compact, your SU10 offers a surprising array of playback, edit-
ing, and utility functions. You may need to refer to this manual fairly often in the
beginning, but the concepts and operating principles should soon become clear.
Before starting to use your SU10, please be certain to read through the
precau-
tions
on page 2 for information that will help you avoid data loss and equipment
damage.
Notations
Button names are enclosed in a rectangular frame, as in
[HOLD]
or
[EXIT]
.
The 12 central buttons are called
pads. Each pad has two functions. The lower
function is indicated by the word
PAD
followed by the button number: for
example,
[PAD 1]
,
[PAD 10]
. The upper function is indicated by an expression
such as
[SHIFT]
+
[SONG 2]
, which means “hold down the
[SHIFT]
key while pressing
the
[SONG2]
button.”
In general a + sign between two button names means that you must hold
down the first button while pressing the second. For example,
[REV]
+
[PAD 1]
,
[SHIFT]
+
[EDIT]
.
SU10 editing and utility operations are semi-interactive, with the lower left
area of the LCD displaying the necessary messages, prompts, and parameters.
Messages and parameter names that appear in this area are shown in a special
font, as in:
Delete A1?
.
Normal boldface is sometimes used to
call attention to important passages
