You can modify brightness, attack, and other parameters to make the sound your own. There are 5 main display pages: LFO, Portamento, Pitch, EG (Envelope Generator), and Filter.

If MEMORY PROTECT is ON, however (Page 257), the voice edit settings will not be saved and will be erased when a different style is selected. G Absolute and relative parameters. Absolute parameters are parameters that directly control the corresponding function (pitch bend range, pitch bend, portamento ON/OFF, portamento time, pitch modulation depth, filter modulation depth, amplitude modulation depth). Relative parameters, on the other hand, function more like offset values which shift some other value by a specified amount. All voice edit parameters other than those listed above are relative. In the sections that follow the absolute or relative status of each parameter is listed beside the parameter name. 9. Use [Knob 1] ~ [Knob 4] to make the required settings. 10.
