SQ-80 — Musician's Manual
You can now audition the Quantized Track, to see if the effect was what you wanted. Play the
new (Quantized) Track, or the Original (Unquantized) Track, pressing
Stop
•
Cont to halt the
Sequencer between plays. The
Auto-Locate Controls on the LOCATE Page can be used before
either PLAY command, to start from somewhere other than the beginning of the Sequence.
− > Press
KEEP NEW TRACK to accept the Quantized Track. This will replace the Original
Track in the Sequence, and you will be returned to the
LOCATE Page. Or,
− > Press
KEEP ORIGINAL TRACK to return to the LOCATE Page, with the Track
unchanged (no Quantization). In this case you can repeat the procedure, trying other
Quantization values, until you find the one that works for a particular Track.
Note: When you Quantize a Track, each note recorded on the Track will be moved to the nearest
eat
of the selected value — it will be moved ahead or back in time, depending on which beat it is closer
to. Sometimes, especially when using small Quantization values such as 1 / 16th or 1/32nd Notes,
a given note might get Quantized to the beat just before or just after the one you wanted it on.
In
this case you might try a different value, and if that doesn't work, record the Track again.
7) ERASE
This Erases the selected Track entirely — puts it back into its original UNUSED state. This is a good
thing to do after you have Merged a Track into another, or if you accidentally selected (and thus defined)
an
UNUSED Track, or if you just really don't like a Track, and want it to go away.
If you want to Erase only the Track Data but leave the Program and MIDI Configuration of the Track
intact, you should simply Record over the Track, as described earlier, but without playing anything.
To ERASE a Track:
4 Make sure the Track you want to Erase is selected.
− > Select
EDIT Page, and press TRACK.
− > Press
ERASE — the Display shows the following:
-> Press
*YES* to Erase the
Track. You will then be re-
turned to the
EDIT TRAC
Page. Or Press *NO* to cancel
the procedure for any reason.
ote: After you Erase a Track you are returned to the Tracks Select Page. The SQ-80 will be in the
Straight Synth mode — no Track selected. The Track you just Erased will read
UNUSED on the
Tracks Select Page.
