TS-12 Musician’s Manual Section 8 — Understanding Programs

Using the Copy Functions
The Copy page provides programming utility functions for:
• copying entire pages of parameter data at once while programming voices
• copying complete voices, effects, or programs
• changing the system pitch-table
About the Copy Functions
When programming synthesizers, it is often desirable to be able to make changes to some
component of a sound and then to transfer the newly modified component to another part of the
same voice or program, or even to use it in a different program. The Copy page of the TS-12
provides several useful functions which facilitate copying components from one place to another.
The components which can be copied may be all of the parameters on a page or in a voice, or
even an entire program. The copy function can be used to move programs from one location to
another, using a procedure described later in this section.
Press the Copy button will display the Copy page menu. Pressing Copy again will return you to
the last parameter page that was selected.
The top line of the display indicates the currently selected copy context. The copy context is
determined by the type of page that was selected just before you pressed Copy to enter the Copy
page. The copy context determines which parameters will be affected by the functions on the
page.
How to Set the Copy Context:
• Press Wave to display the Wave page.
• Press Copy. The copy context will show WAVE PAGE PARAMETERS.
• Press Copy again. You will be returned to the Wave page.
