Selecting and playing sounds
Selecting programs
To begin, let's enter Program mode and select a program.
When shipped from the factory, the microSTATION's internal memory contains 480 programs organized into 7
categories. In this example, we'll specify the SYNTH category and select a program from that category.
1.
Press the PROG button to enter Program mode.
The display will show the PROG PLAY page. The PROG PLAY page will always appear when you press the
PROG button.
The lower line of the display shows the index number and the program name.
2.
Use the CATEGORY SELECT buttons to make the SYNTH indicator light‐up.
(The category indicators are located to the left of the display.)
The category indicators show the category that's currently selected.
3.
Use the buttons to select a program.
Play the keyboard and listen to the sound.
4.
When selecting programs, you can use the Audition function to play a riff or phrase.
Press the AUDITION button located below the REALTIME
CONTROLS knob 1; the LED at the left of the button will light‐up,
and a riff (phrase) suitable for that program will be played
automatically.
