Editing
The Polysix also allows the user to alter
any program either temporarily
or perma-
nently
via a powerful
and easy to use
EDIT system. The user may.
•Make any number of temporary
changes
to any program parameters or settings
previously
stores in memory,
without
changing the memory itself.
•Cancel all changes and return to the
stored program
settings.
•Make
permanent
alterations
to programs
stored in memory.
•Move
programs
from
one memory
Ioca-
tion
to another.
•Modify
a program and move the altered
version to a new location
in memory.

4. To
Change a Programmed
Setting:
Simply move the control in the desired
direction.
The Programmer will recognize
the change and will make a corresponding
change
to the actual
value of that
ticular synthesizer function.
This is called
Incremental Editing.
For example, if the filter Cutoff
quency (Fc) was programmed at ' '4", and
the control
was at "6"
at the time
program was selected, moving the control
to
"7"
causes
the
effective
Fc value
become "5".
If the physical endpoint
