The DX200 Editor is a comprehensive editing software program specially designed for
the DX200 Desktop Control Synthesizer - providing an easy, intuitive way to edit and
create your own original DX200 patterns for the DX200 Desktop Control Synthesizer.

About the DX200 Editor
The DX200 Editor is a full-featured editing software program for the DX200 Desktop
Control Synthesizer, providing an exceptionally simple and convenient way to edit and
control all of the parameters on the DX200 Desktop Control Synthesizer --- even provid-
ing the same control format as used on the original DX7.
DX200 Editor lets you store your edits as an original pattern and save up to 64 patterns
directly to the DX200. Naturally, you can save additional sets of 128 patterns to floppy
disks or your hard disk drive as DX200 Files. The DX200 Editor also features a conve-
nient, easy-to-use DX Librarian that lets you organize your patterns.
Generally, editing on the DX200 Editor is done from the Main window (the window that
automatically appears when you call up the Editor). However, you can also use a sec-
ond window (the DX7 Edit Panel) to edit the Patterns. This lets you perform all edits just
as if you were using an actual DX7 synthesizer.
For general instructions and explanations on how to use the DX200 Editor, see Setting
and Changing Parameter Values and Toolbar. For information on specific, commonly
used operations, see Operations.

Operations
Selecting a DX200 pattern is the important first step in editing. Once you've edited a
pattern you can store it to the DX200 or save it to a floppy disk/hard disk drive with other
patterns as a DX200 File.
• Make sure to store your edits to a pattern before selecting another pattern. If you've edited
the DX200 Editor parameters and then select a different pattern, all your edited parameters
will be replaced by those of the newly selected pattern.

Operations /
Editing a DX200 Pattern
z
Select the desired pattern.
Refer to Selecting a DX200 Pattern.
x
Edit the pattern parameters as desired.
c
Store the edited settings as a pattern, then save it with other
edited patterns as a DX200 File.
Use the Store operation to store your newly edited pattern. Then use the Save
operation to save that edited pattern with other User Patterns to a DX200 File.
Both the Store and Save operations are necessary to ensure that your pattern is
saved properly. Failing to do so would be roughly similar to writing a letter but not
putting it in an envelope. Make sure to execute both operations when you wish to
keep a pattern you've edited.
