The System Setup Pages
Operational Notes
Navigation
The System Setup pages work the same way
all other modules do, but here are some
reminders:
• To access the next or previous page, use
the Page Down / Up arrows.
• Cycle forward to the desired page quickly
by pressing [SYSTEM SETUP] repeatedly.
• Use [SHIFT] + the Page Down / Up arrows
to jump to the last page or back to the first
page.
Access, Action
• Some fields have Control buttons that
execute a function, such as the Factory
Reset. These are indicated by the word
(action) in the charts.
• Some pages have access buttons that
open another page. These are indicated by
the word (access) in the charts. Follow the
instructions in the Left display to calibrate
the selected item.
Saving the Settings
Press [EXIT] or any module button to save
System Setup changes. The message “System
saving...” will be shown in the Left display for
about 1 second. Note that sound output is
silenced while the settings are being saved.
Save System State
You can specify which patch you see first
when the Hydrasynth is powered up. It’s a
simple process:
• Select your favorite patch (that’s the hard
part).
• Hold [SAVE] and press [SYSTEM SETUP].
• The display shows “STATE SAVED!” to
confirm the action.
