Playing Sounds
The XV-2020 comes with a rich palette of onboard sounds, called Patches. Let’s
listen to some Patches in Patch mode.
Playing Patches (Phrase Preview)
Even when there’s no MIDI keyboard or sequencer connected, the XV-2020 allows
you to audition sounds.
1. Press [VALUE] to make the PATCH indicator lights up.

The Patch plays while [VOLUME] is depressed.
At this time, the currently selected bank USr (USER) and the patch number appear
in alternation on the display.

other patches.
