Playing in Patch Mode
Patches are what you normally play during a performance.
Select a Patch before playing.
■ Selecting a Patch
The 768 patches of the XP-30 are organized into six groups of
128 patches: User, and Preset A–E. In addition, the patches of
three popular Wave Expansion Boards (“Session,”
“Orchestral,” and “Techno Collection”) are also stored
onboard. Furthermore, you can install up to two separately
available Wave Expansion Boards, which will allow you to
choose from as many as 2044 patches.
USER
The XP-30’s user memory contains 128 Patches that can be
rewritten to create your own Patches.
PR-A–C, E (Presets A–C, E)
The XP-30 includes 512 preset Patches that are not user-
rewritable. But you can call up preset Patch settings into the
temporary area, modify them, and then store them in User
memory.
PR-D (GM (General MIDI))
GM Patches are for instruments compatible with the GM
System. The aim of this system is to standardize MIDI
specifications among different equipment makers or models.
The XP-30 contains 128 GM Patches that are not user-
rewritable. But you can call up GM Patch settings into the
temporary area, modify them, and then store them in User
memory.
XP-A–C (Internal Wave Expansion)
The patches of three Wave Expansion Boards (766 patches)
are already built into the XP-30, and cannot be rewritten.
However you may modify the settings of the currently
selected patch, and then store the modified patch in User
memory.
XP-D, E (Wave Expansion Boards installed in
EXP-D, E Slots)
The Patches included in optional Wave Expansion Boards are
not user-rewritable. But you can call up those Patch settings
into the temporary area, modify them, and then store them in
User memory.
* A Patch XP-D, E cannot be accessed if the Wave Expansion
Board it belongs to has not been installed.
