SQ-80 — Musician's Manual
8) TRACK — Five EDIT functions are available for editing an individual TRACK:
− TRANSPOSE — This function allows you to transpose a Track up or down in pitch by as much
as a full octave in either direction.
− REMOVE CONTROLLERS — Removes any Controller data (such as Pitch Bend, MOD
Wheel, Breath Controller, etc). and leaves only Key Events.
− > QUANTIZE — Quantization, or Auto-correct, takes the notes played and moves them to
the nearest 1/4, 1/8th, 1/16th, or 1/32nd note, or 1/4, 1/8th, 1/16th or 32nd-note Triplet.
− > ERASE — Erases the track.
− MERGE — Takes all the Key and controller data from one Track and adds it in to another Track.
This is good for conserving Tracks, and for achieving "Sound-on-Sound" which the
SQ-80
Sequencer does not otherwise do — you can record two Tracks separately with the same sound,
then MERGE them together.
9) STEP — Step Editing. This EDIT function allows you to make minute changes in Track Data,
by recording, erasing, punching in or punching out while manually stepping through the
Sequence one beat, or one clock pulse, at a time.
10) *EXIT* — The EXIT Button gets you off the EDIT Page any time you change your mind,
select the wrong function, or want to go back and make sure that the proper Track, Sequence or
Song is Selected.
Note: All EDIT functions affect only the currently selected Track, Sequence or Song. Before
selecting any EDIT function you must make sure that the Track, Sequence or Song you
want to Edit is selected. You cannot change the Track, Sequence or Song to be edited from
the EDIT Page.
EDITING A TRACK
When you select TRACK from the menu on the EDIT Page, the Display in turn gives you another menu,
from which you select which
TRACK EDIT function you want:
The upper-left segment of the Display tells you which Track you are editing — remember you can't
change Tracks from here. If you have the wrong Track, or you
just aren't sure, press *EXIT* , then go
to the
TRACKS SELECT Page and make sure that the right Track is selected.
