Creating Original Sounds via the Knobs
The two knobs can be used to add variations to the sound being played, transforming the sound
in a variety of musical ways. Select the desired function combination printed above the knobs,
and then rotate the knobs as you play, for more expressive and dynamic performance.
Repeatedly press the [KNOB ASSIGN] button to
sequentially assign the function combinations pro-
vided: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7 → 1 ... etc.
The current combination is shown in the display.
The target differs depending on the function.
For details about the functions assigned to the
knobs, refer to the Reference Manual on the website
(page 11).
Here is an example of how to use the knobs.
1
Select the desired Voice (page 24).
In this example, we will use Voice No.197
“SquareLd” (Square Lead) as a synth-lead type
Voice.
2
Press the [KNOB ASSIGN] button several
times to assign Function 1 to the knob.
The number 1 appears on the display (below
“KNOB ASSIGN”).
3
Rotate knob B all the way to the right
(maximum), and then play the keyboard
with your right hand while operating
knob A with your left.
For more specific examples, refer to “Playing Like a DJ”
in the Reference Manual on the website (page 11).

Functions assigned to the knobs
• Only selecting a function combination will not affect the sound
even if the knob arrow is not at the center position. The
selected function only works when the knob is moved.
• Depending on the panel settings or how you move the knob,
you may not notice any change to the parameter value, or you
may hear a noise, or the knob may not work properly, even if
you rotate it.
• Some types of DSP1 effects do not change even if the func-
tion assignment is set to 3 and the knob is turned.
• Function assignments can also be changed by holding down
the [KNOB ASSIGN] button and pressing the OCTAVE [−]/[+]
buttons.
Using the Knobs
If you have added an effect to the Main Voice and then
change that Voice, the settings created via the knobs
will be replaced with the default settings of the new
Voice. If you want to keep the settings you have created,
make sure to memorize them to the Registration Mem-
ory (page 51) before selecting a different Voice.
Rotating a knob to the right while the volume is set to a
high level may result in distortion. If this occurs, reduce the
volume level.
