Display
The Kiwi-8P display provides
feedback and instructions that make
navigating the menu much easier.
On normal play the display will show
the Tone number (G/B/T) followed by
a space followed by the first 12
characters of the tone name.
As edits are made with the PG-
800 or midi the parameter being
edited will display along with the
GBT location and the value.
Factory Presets
The factory presets are now supplied
as sysex dumps labelled Kiwi
Factory 1-4 and can be restored if
required.
The factory restore option will
wipe all the internal tones so
make sure you have back up your
tones first.
Midi Received
Midi data received will flash the MIDI
Led if it is recognized by the JX-8P.
Midi Panic
The MIDI PANIC button next to the
WRITE button will cancel any
sounding notes including internal.
To stop all output from the JX-8P
press and release MIDI PANIC.
Note Hold
The Original JX-8P has no Note
Hold except when using a hold
pedal. A Hold Function has been
added to the Kiwitechnics Kiwi-8P
Upgrade front panel and uses the
HOLD button. Pressing HOLD will
toggle Hold on or off. The HOLD
LED will be lit when hold is on.
The HOLD light will flash when the
Hold Pedal is used
Edit Buffer Compare
Whenever the edit buffer does not
match the saved Tone showing on
the display the three decimal
points on the G/B/T part of the
display will be lit.
To retain these changes when the
Tone is changed or the JX-8P is
powered off the Tone must be
written to memory.
