Controls and Functions

% Knobs 1 – 8

These eight highly versatile knobs let you adjust various

important parameters, such as the current Part, Arpeggio

tempo, and the Motion Sequencer.

Pressing the knob function [TONE]/[EQ/FX]/[ARP/MS]

button, the Multi part control [MULTI] button, or the Assign

[ASSIGN] button in the upper left corner changes the

functions assigned to the knobs.

^ Control Sliders 1 – 8

These sliders control the volume balance of the sound, by

letting you adjust the individual levels of the 16 Parts (1 – 8 /

9 – 16), the eight Elements for Normal Parts (AWM2), the

eight FM Operators for a Normal Part (FM-X), and eight Keys

of the Drum Part, in different ways depending on the

conditions of the various buttons.

NOTE

• If all of the Control Sliders are set to the minimum, you may not

hear any sound from the instrument, even when playing the

keyboard or a Song. If this is the case, raise all the sliders to a

suitable level.

• The [MASTER VOLUME] slider controls the overall audio output

level of this instrument. On the other hand, the Control Sliders

control the level of each Element/Key/Operator of the Parts and the

volume for each Part of the Performance as a parameter.

Accordingly, the values set via the Control Sliders can be stored as

Performance data.
