2. Press <Execute>.
The new tempo and volume values are stored.
Note: You can also change the setting by holding down
[REC] and pressing the [RESET] button.
Quantize: timing corrections
Quantize is a function that corrects minor timing
problems. It shifts the notes whose timing is not
exactly right to the nearest “correct” unit.
Be careful, though, because the timing of the quan-
tized notes may be mathematically correct, while the
result is not what you expected. Always select a resolu-
tion value that is fine enough to accept all note values
you play. If the shortest notes of your accompaniment
are 1/16th note triplets, set the Resolution value to 1/
16t.
1. Press <Quantize>.
2. Use <√> and <®> below the display to select a
parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>.
Track— Track number (you can also select “All”
tracks)
From— The starting measure
For — The number of bars from the starting measure
(you can also select “All” measures).
Resolution— Note value to be used for correcting the
timing. (Select the length of the shortest note of the
data to be quantized.)
3. Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings
and edit the data.
Erase: removing data from a track or song
Erase is a function that erases a portion of the selected
song, without removing the measures themselves.
That will leave you with the equivalent number of
blank measures. You could then record new data in
those measures using the Punch In/Out recording
method (see page 34).
Note: The notes you erase cannot be restored.
1. Press <Erase>.
2. Use <√> and <®> below the display to select a
parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>.
“Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize:
timing corrections”.
Event refers to the types of data that will be erased:
• All: all data
• Note: the notes you played on the keyboard.
• Except Note: all data except the notes (e.g. footswitch,
Pitch Bend, and Modulation data).
• Tempo: all tempo settings (changes) except the preset
tempo. “Tempo” erases all tempo data, regardless of
what Track numbers have been selected.
3. Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings
and edit the data.
Copy(ing) measures
This copies a portion of a track to another bar of the
same track. Use this function if you’d rather not play
the chorus or verse of a song more than once.
Note: All data present at the copy destination is overwritten
by what is copied.
1. Press <Copy>.
2. Use <√> and <®> below the display to select a
parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>.
“Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize:
timing corrections”.
To — The copy destination measure (“End” refers to
the end of the song).
Times— The number of times the selected measures
are to be copied.
3. Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings
and edit the data.
Delete: removing measures
Though similar to Erase, the Delete function also
removes the selected measures. You cannot select the
data type to be deleted because Delete removes every-
thing.
Delete means “remove all measures within the speci-
fied range” (for example bars 1 and 2 of a track, so that
bar 3 becomes bar 1).
Note: Once a measure has been deleted, it cannot be
restored.
1. Press <Delete>.
2. Use <√> and <®> below the display to select a
parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>.
“Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize:
timing corrections”.
