3. Press the [VOICE VECTOR] key once to move ahead to the LEVEL REC
display (REFERENCE SECTION, page 37).
parameter. At this point the [VECTOR CONTROL] will be active in the
level control mode, and you can rehearse the level vector you are about to
record.
4. Move the cursor to the REC parameter. Vector recording will begin the
instant you play a note on the keyboard. A rectangular block will flash at the
cursor position while recording. Recording will end automatically when the
maximum of 50 sampling steps has been reached — how long this takes
depends both on the vector rate setting and how fast you move the
[VECTOR CONTROL]. When recording finishes, the cursor will move
automatically to the PLAY parameter position. At the same time the VEC -
TOR PLAY mode will automatically be turned OFF so that the dynamic
vector just recorded is active.
Now you can play on the keyboard to hear how your dynamic level vector
turned out. If you don't like the results, simply move the cursor back to REC
and record again.
Detune Vectors: Although you've just recorded a dynamic level vector,
dynamic detune vectors can be recorded in exactly the same way using the
DETUNE SPEED and DETUNE REC functions which are also accessible in
the VOICE VECTOR edit mode (REFERENCE SECTION, page 39).
5. When you're satisfied with your first vector masterpiece, you can return to
the VOICE PLAY mode with the option of storing the voice you have just
edited into one of the SY22's INTERNAL memory locations.
There is, however, a slight catch. If you simply go ahead and attempt to
store the voice at this point the SY22 will inform you that the internal
memory is protected with a "Memory Protected" display, preventing the
store operation. If this happens, you'll have to press the [-1/NO] key to exit
from the "Memory Protected" display. Both INTERNAL and CARD
memory protect functions are automatically activated whenever the SY22 is
turned on, to prevent accidental erasure of important voices.
To turn the memory protect function off, press the [UTILITY SETUP] key a
few times until the MEM. PROTECT function appears (REFERENCE SEC-
TION, page 73).
Move the cursor to the INT parameter and press the [-1/NO] or [+1/YES]
key to turn the internal memory protection off.
