Does any expert here can share the technique of editing a program?
To be specific, giving an example is appreciated ~

Edit parameters with manual opened at corresponding pages and volume at reasonable level. That's the only expert advise may be. Try to make a sound from scratch (SHIFT+3, 3 - initialisation, if not pushing WRITE button, you can always revert to your sounds by switching power off) to learn basics.

yeah. it really is an art, not a science. to get to the point where you know what you need to do in order to make the sound you want, you really have to develop your own technique and understanding.

just get editing, and play with all the parameters, see what they do.

as Pin said, it really does help to have the parameter guide section of the manual open to see what you're doing, as some things aren't as straightforward as you might think (for example virtual patches, which rely on other things. for example routing a LFO to cutoff, you will find that the LFO speed also affects it in ways, which some people don't always find clear).

Thanks all :)

in fact I have been playing synthesizer for a long time ~ but for me it is really hard to learn deeply by just editing sound myself ( experimenting the parameters ).

I can't tell what meaning the parameter owns. Instead I just partly know what will "happen" after tuning it.

So I am looking for some ways which are more efficient. Do you guys mind sharing your learning method with me?

Hope experts here can help ~ :)
