XK-6 Owners Manual 197
Preset Programming
There is so much you can do with the XK-6 it would be impossible to
describe it all. This chapter is will give you a few ideas for programming
your own custom sounds and contains step-by-step instructions to help
you get started. In order to get the most from this chapter, we recommend
you actually try each example.
Editing Presets
One of the easiest ways to make a new preset is to edit an existing preset.
This is also an excellent way of becoming familiar with XK-6. If you don’t
like what you hear, simply select a new preset, then XK-6 reverts to the
original sound. Changes are not permanent until you Save them (see
“Saving a Preset” on page 187).
Let’s experiment and modify a few parameters of an existing preset. We’ll
start with functions that have an obvious effect on the sound: Instrument
Select, Tuning, and Chorus.
Changing the
Instrument
Changing the instrument is the easiest and most dramatic way to modify
an existing preset.
To Change the Instrument for the Current Layer:
1.
Choose any cool preset, then press the Preset Edit button.
2.
Press the #1 Jump button twice to jump directly to the Instrument
page. See “Preset Menu Jump Keys” on page 36.

entry control to turn OFF all layers except L1. This allows you to hear
the different instruments by themselves.
