Basic Operations
This section gives some basic explanations about operating the synthesizer.
Selecting a Mode
There are several operation Modes — Voice Play Mode, Performance Play Mode, Phrase Clip Mode,
etc. — each of which enables you to work efficiently with the synthesizer’s various functions.
An overview of each Mode is given on Page 35.
There are separate Play Modes for Voices, Performances and Phrase Clips. To enter each of these
Modes, use the appropriate MODE key ([VOICE] for Voice Play Mode, [PERFORM] for Performance
Play Mode). To enter or exit Phrase Clip Mode, press the PHRASE CLIP key. (Note that this key is
not found among the MODE keys.)
There are also separate Edit and Job Modes for Voices, Performances and Phrase Clips. To enter Edit

Similarly, pressing the [STORE] key in Voice, Performance or Phrase Clip (Play or Edit) Mode takes
you into Store Mode where you can store Voices, Performances or Phrase Clips.
Other Modes include Utility Mode where you can specify system settings, Card Mode where you can
perform tasks related to the Memory Card, and Sequence Mode where you can play back MIDI song
files or create a sequence chain. (Press the [UTILITY] key for Utility Mode, the [CARD] key for Card
