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.

Select "DX200 Pattern List."

Click "Edit" on the menu bar, then select "DX200 Pattern List."

You can also quickly call up this dialog box by clicking any inactive part of the win-

dow pressing control key and clicking "DX200 Pattern List" in the pop-up menu. Or,

you can click "Edit" on the menu bar, then select "DX200 Pattern List."

Select the desired pattern.

Click on the desired pattern, then close the dialog box (click the close button) to

return to the DX200 Editor window.

• You can play the currently selected pattern by clicking on the keys of the keyboard in the DX7

Simulator window.

Clicking this button lets you toggle between the full editing display (with all parameters

shown) and a smaller editing display (with a limited parameter set). The smaller display

leaves out many of the more detailed parameters, making the editing display less clut-

tered and easier to handle.

recording complex real-time parameter changes. To call up the window, click the

"FREE EG" button at the top of the Main window.

tor."You can also call it up from the toolbar.

No editing functions are directly available from the DX7 Simulator window. How-

tor Panel window.

Operations /

Opening the Various Windows

Selecting a Mode – Play, Edit or Function

In the Edit Panel window, you can select from among the three main modes: Play, Edit

and Function.

• Play Mode

In the play mode, you can:

• Select one of the 128 patterns.

• Play the selected pattern (from the DX200's keyboard or from the keys in the DX7

Simulator window).

To select the Play mode:

Click one of the [MEMORY SELECT] buttons: [1-32] or [33-64].

•Edit Mode

In the Edit mode, you can:

• Edit the pattern, using the Edit parameters (printed in lavender above each but-

ton).

To select the Edit mode:

Click the [EDIT] button.

• Function Mode

In the Function mode, you can:

• Edit the Function (global) parameters of the pattern (printed in yellow below the

appropriate buttons). These include other miscellaneous Function parameters as

well, such as Edit Recall and Pattern Initialize.

To select the Function mode:

Click the [FUNCTION] button.

Operations /

Editing a DX200 Pattern

Select the desired pattern.

Refer to Selecting a DX200 Pattern.

Edit the pattern parameters as desired.

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.

Editing a DX200 Pattern

Operations /

Compare

This function lets you switch back and forth between the current edited condition of the

pattern and its original un-edited condition. This allows you to easily hear and compare

the changes you make to a pattern with its original condition.

Edit the pattern as desired.

Select "DX200 Compare."

Click "Edit" on the menu bar, then select "DX200 Compare."

You can also quickly use Compare by clicking any inactive part of the window

pressing control key and clicking "DX Compare" in the pop-up menu.

In the Compare condition, a check appears beside "DX200 Compare" in the menu.

All parameter values are ghosted (in gray) and cannot be edited. Play the con-

nected MIDI keyboard (or click the keys in the DX7 Simulator window) to hear the

original un-edited pattern.

Select "DX200 Compare" again to return to the edited condition.

Do this as often as you wish to go back and forth between the two conditions.

• "DX200 Compare" is ghosted (gray) and cannot be selected if the pattern has not yet been

edited.

• The Compare function can be used with the parameter in the Main Window and with Tempo

and Swing in the Step Sequencer window.
