Selecting a program

The programs in the KEYBOARDS and ENSEMBLE sections
are stored by category.
On the Grandstage, programs are not selected directly; rather,
favorites are selected, and then the programs inside of the
favorites are changed.
1. Check that the KEYBOARDS or the ENSEMBLE
buttons on the front panel are lit.
If only the KEYBOARDS button or the ENSEMBLE button
is lit, they cannot be turned off. Turn both of the sections on
and then turn off the section that you will not use.
2. Use the category selection knob for the section
you wish to change, in order to select the
category.
When switching to a different category, the program
previously selected for that category will be selected again.
3. Select a program using the VARIATION knob.
The programs that can be selected for each category are
shown in the program list, found in the "Sound Name List".
