Quick Start Guide Editing Voices Voice editing with the Control knobs Reference (page 132) These knobs let you change various aspects of the Voice's sound in real time - while you play. Turn a knob to the right to increase the value, and left to decrease it. If you want to keep the edits you make, you can store them to a new voice (page 86). n Each voice of the MOTIF has been programmed with a default or standard parameter value. Using these knobs offsets the default or standard parameter value. Regardless of the size of the offset, the minimum and maximum limits cannot be exceeded. n Using these knobs in the Performance mode affects the currently selected performance, and not the voices themselves.

However, if the knob in the display is light, turning the knob will not have any effect until you reach the current setting. Once you've adjusted the Knob to that setting point, the display knob turns dark, and you can tweak the sound. 2 Filter and EG 3 Assign 4 Master EQ 84 MOTIF Quick Start Guide
