192Owner’s Manual
The Song Mixing Job mode features several basic operations, such as Initialize and Copy. After setting parameters as required from the 
selected display, press the [ENTER] button to execute the Job. 
This function lets you store your edited Song Mixing program to User memory (DRAM). 
For details, refer to page 98 in the Quick Guide section. 
[F5] RCV SW (Receive Switch)
From this display you can set how each individual Part responds to various MIDI data, such as Control Change and Program Change messages. When the 
relevant parameter is set to “on,” the corresponding Part responds to the appropriate MIDI data. 
Note that two different display types listed below are provided and you can switch between them by pressing the [SF5] button. Each display type features 
the same settings in a different format; use the type you feel most comfortable with.
• Display showing four Parts
This display type shows the Receive Switch status for four Parts at a time. Set the desired Part on or off, for the corresponding MIDI data type. To view and 
edit another set of four Parts, press the appropriate Number button, [1] to [16].
Keep in mind that since all the available parameters cannot be simultaneously displayed, you will need to use the cursor controls to scroll the display in order 
to see and set the other parameters.
• Display showing all parameters for one Part
This display type shows all of the Receive Switch settings for a single selected Part. Set the desired MIDI data type on or off for the selected Part. To select 
other Parts, use the Number [1] – [16] buttons (making sure that the [TRACK SELECT] button is on). 
Song Mixing Job mode[SONG] ➞ Song selection ➞ [MIXING] ➞ [JOB] 
[F1] INIT (Initialize)
This function lets you reset (initialize) all Song Mixing parameters to their default settings. It also allows you to selectively initialize certain parameters, such 
as Common settings, settings for each Part, and so on—very useful when creating a completely new Song Mixing program from scratch.
Type of parameter to be initialized: GM, All, Common (Common parameter settings for the selected Song Mixing), Part 1 – 16
[F2] RECALL (Edit Recall)
If you are editing a Song Mixing program and select a different program without storing your edited one, all the edits you’ve made will be erased. If this 
happens, you can use Edit Recall to restore the Song Mixing program with your latest edits intact.
[F3] COPY
From this display you can copy Part parameter settings from any Song Mixing program 
including the currently edited (but not yet stored) one to a particular Part of the Song Mixing 
program you are editing. This would come in handy when you want to use some settings from 
another program.
The procedure is basically the same as in the [F3] COPY display in the Performance Job mode. 
Refer to page 177.
[F4] BULK (Bulk Dump)
This function lets you send all your edited parameter settings for the currently selected Song Mixing program to a computer or another MIDI instrument for 
data archiving.
nIn order to execute Bulk Dump, you’ll need to set the correct MIDI Device Number. For details, see page 209.
[F5] PF COPY (Performance Copy)
This convenient operation lets you copy certain settings of the four Parts in a performance to the Song Mixing program currently being edited.
The display is similar to the [F6] TEMPLATE → [SF2] PERFORM display in the Song Mixing mode. However, the following points differ.
• You can select the desired parameters.
• The MIDI receive channel settings are set to match the basic channel settings (page 209). When the basic channel is set to “omni,” the receive channel 
here is set to 1.

Pattern mode
■ Creating Patterns—basic procedure
Patterns consist of the following three types of data: 
• MIDI sequence data (created in the Pattern Record mode, Pattern Edit mode, and Pattern Job mode)
• Setup data (created in the Pattern Play mode)
• Mixing data (created in the Pattern Mixing mode/Mixing Edit mode and stored in the Pattern Mixing Store mode)
After creating the data in these modes described above, store the Mixing settings in the Pattern Mixing Store mode to archive it as Pattern 
data and save the entire Pattern to the USB storage device in the File mode. 
nNon-note MIDI events (such as Voice number, volume, pan, and effect send level) which are necessary at the start of a Pattern are not recorded as 
MIDI sequence data, but are stored instead as Mixing data.
Because Pattern data (MIDI sequence data, Setup data, and Mixing data) is recorded to DRAM (page 150), it will be lost when turning the power off. 
Make sure to save any Pattern data created via the Record, Edit, Job, and Mixing setting to the USB storage device in the File mode before turning the 
power off. For details on saving Pattern data, see page 98. 
Pattern Play mode[PATTERN] ➞ Pattern selection
[F1] PLAY
Trans (Transpose)Determines the key transpose setting for the Pattern, and can be adjusted in semitones.
Settings:-36 – +36
nIf the Pattern includes a track that you do not want to transpose, set the Not Shift parameter for each Part ([PATTERN] → 
[MIXING] → [EDIT] → Part selection → [F4] TONE → [SF1] TUNE → NoteShift).
MEAS (Measure)Indicates the current measure number and beat for the current Pattern. During playback, this indication 
changes automatically according to the Pattern playback. You can input the desired measure number directly 
by using the Number Input window called up via the [INFORMATION] button.
[SF1] ARP1 (Arpeggio 1) – [SF5] 
ARP5 (Arpeggio 5)You can register the desired Arpeggio types to these buttons and call them up any time during your keyboard 
performance. 
[F2] GROOVE (Grid Groove)

[F3] TRACK
[SF1] CHANNEL
Same as in the Song Play mode. See page 178.
[SF2] OUT SW (Output Switch)Same as in the Song Play mode. See page 179.
[SF3] TR VCE (Track Voice)Determines whether the program change data contained in the phrase data is effective or not. For most 
purposes, this should be set to “off.” For example, if a phrase has embedded Voice changes (program change 
messages) but you don’t want the Voice to change in the middle of the phrase, set this to “off.” Tracks that are 
set to “off” here automatically play back with the Voice number assigned to the Part set in the Mixing mode.
nThe Phrase Voice embedded in the Phrase can be specified from the Voice display in the Pattern Record mode (page 
198).
[F4] PATCHRefer to page 78 in the Quick Guide section.
From this display, you can assign a Preset phrase or a User phrase (recorded in the Pattern Record mode) to each track and create a Pattern that contains 
up to 16 tracks.
nThe Patch function allows you to use only User phrases recorded to a track of the currently selected Pattern. If you wish to use User phrases recorded to tracks of other 
Patterns, use the Phrase Data Copy function, selected with [SF5] button. 
SectionShows the current edited section. For details about how to change sections, see page 75. 
MeasShows Measure: Beat for current playback location. 
[SF4] CLEARThis clears the Phrase assignment to the currently selected track and leaves the track empty.
[SF5] COPYThe User phrases that can be assigned with the 
Patch function are limited to the ones contained 
in the currently selected Pattern. This function 
lets you copy phrases in another Pattern to the 
selected one. Press the [SF5] button to call up 
the display shown at left. After setting the 
parameters as needed, press the [ENTER] button 
to copy the phrase data.
The copy operation overwrites any data 
previously existing in the destination phrase.
