Selecting the ELEMENT ENVELOPE Edit Mode
From the VOICE or MULTI mode:
From another edit or utility mode simply press
[ELEMENT ENVELOPE].
An “E” will appear to the left of the LED dis-
play to indicate that an edit mode is selected,
and the element selected for editing will be dis-
played to the right of the display — “A”, “b”,
“C”, or “d”. A dot will appear to the right of
the element character as soon as any parameter
has been edited.
Different elements can be selected for editing by
pressing the appropriate [ELEMENT SELECT]
key — [A], [B], [C] or [D]. If a 2-element voice
is being edited, only elements A and B can be
selected.
Any of the available elements can also be turned
on or off by pressing the appropriate
[ELEMENT ON/OFF] key. Each key alternately
turns the associated element on and off, and the
on/off status of the elements is shown to the
right of the upper LCD line. If the element
character is showing, the associated element is
ON, if a dash appears in place of the element
character, that element is OFF. The ability to
turn elements on or off while editing makes it
easier to hear the effect of parameter changes on
a single element. The currently selected element
is also shown on the LCD as a reversed (white on
black) character.
In this example elements A, B and D are ON, while
element C is OFF. Element A is currently selected
for editing.
