Chapter 5: Song Mode
Page 87
Converting a Song to a Sequence
The song mode function is convenient when assembling a song. When editing detailed data within
a song that has a complicated structure, it’s easier to assemble the song as 1 sequence and then
edit that sequence. In this type of case, it is a good idea to create the basic structure of the song
using the song mode and then convert that to one sequence. By doing that you can then use the
sequence’s edit function to further edit the song. When converted, the songs complete sequence
will be converted to a newly created sequence.
Note: Sequence settings set in step1 of the song will be applied as the settings of the new
sequence such as track name, track type (Drum or MIDI), MIDI OUT channel assign, MIDI
Program Change Assign, mixer, tuning, tempo etc.. Also, song loop settings will be made
effective by the converted sequence.
To convert the song, press CONVRT [F4].

• From song:
This selects the song that you want to convert.
• To sequence:
This selects the sequence where the song will be converted to.
• Track status:
Here you can select what the track status will be after conversion to a sequence.
REFERENCED TO 1ST SQ
The settings (MIDI output, stereo mixer settings, tempo settings, etc.) in each track of
the first sequence will be assigned to all of the following sequences.
OFF TRACKS IGNORED
Tracks that have been turned off (track “ON:” is set to “NO” on the Main Screen) will
not be converted. All tracks will be turned on after conversion, but the data in tracks
that have been turned off will be blank.
All the parameter settings of the first sequence will be used for the new sequence.
MERGED ON MIDI CH
Each sequence will be merged according to their MIDI output channels to the corre-
sponding tracks.
For example:
All track data of MIDI channels 1A-16A will be merged to tracks 1-16
All track data of MIDI channels 1B-16B will be merged to track 17-32
Drum tracks 1 - 4 will be merged to tracks 33 - 36 consecutively.
The Exclusive data will be merged to tracks 1-32 according to the MIDI channel
assigned on each track.
To convert, press DO IT [F5].
CAUTION: If there is data in the sequence you have selected as the destination, the data will
be erased. Be careful when you are converting to a sequence with a name other
than “Unused” .
If the size of the sequence will exceed 50,000 notes after conversion, it will not be
converted.
