ELEMENT SELECT and ELEMENT ON/OFF
During editing, program buttons 1 ~ 4 operate the ELEMENT SELECT
function, while program buttons 9 ~ 12 operate the ELEMENT ON/OFF
function. ELEMENT SELECT and ELEMENT ON/OFF are special functions
designed to facilitate editing.

While you are editing, you can use these buttons to switch the element that you are
working on. Assume that the cursor is currently marking a parameter for element 1. If
you now press
3
(E3), the cursor jumps to the same parameter for element 3.

You can use these buttons to temporarily switch off the sound for specific elements.
This allows you to isolate the sound of a single element, or hear how the voice sounds
when one or more elements are suppressed.
Each button acts as a toggle — press once to switch the sound off, press again to
switch it back on. The LED above each button remains lit while the element’s sound is
on, and blinks to indicate that the sound is switched off.
Important
• The element functions described above are designed to simplify the work of
editing. Button configurations are not reflected in the edited voice data that you
store to memory.
• These element functions are available only during editing.
