Introduction
Introduction to the Controls
This instrument has many buttons and controls—so many that you may feel overwhelmed at first. However, once you 
understand the basic operations, you’ll find the instrument is very easy to use.
Press the button corresponding to the function you want to use.
The buttons are the means of entrance to the functions.
For example, when you want to change a voice, you simply press one of the voice group buttons on the right of the panel, 
or when you want to listen to a preset song, press the [SONG SELECT] button on the left of the panel.
For the functions that are assigned to each button, see “Panel Controls and Terminals” on page 10.
When you press a button, related content or parameter is shown in the display. For example, when you press a voice 
button, the voice name is shown, or when you press the [SONG SELECT] button, a song name is shown on the display. 
After pressing a button, check the display for the indication.
Selecting items/parameters with the buttons on the side of the display.
Each function may have many items or parameters from which you can choose. To select an item or parameter, press one of 
the A [–][+] – D [–][+] buttons. Each parameter in the display corresponds to the A [–][+] – D [–][+] button next to it.
■ To reset the values or parameters, press the [–][+] buttons simultaneously. 
If you’ve changed the parameter values or settings, you may wan to reset them to their normal condition. To do this, simply press 
the [–][+] buttons simultaneously. 
The TEMPO and BRILLIANCE buttons are the same shape as the A [–][+] – D [–][+] buttons. You can reset the related values or 
parameters by simultaneously pressing buttons of this shape.
