Easy Start Guide
Saving (writing) a program or combination
In addition to the parameters mentioned in the preceding pages, such as the changes you make when using the
realtime control knobs to modify the sound, arpeggio pattern, and tempo etc., the microSTATION has many more
parameters, all of which can be saved. (However, some of the parameters adjusted in realtime control B mode are
not saved. Nor are the realtime control A mode changes saved for a combination.)
Be aware that the changes you make by editing will be lost when you select another program or combination, or
when you turn off the power. We recommend that you save your program or combination when you've come up
with a sound that you like.
In the following example, we'll explain how to save a program in Program mode.
