Note:
Remember that a Song is just a series of pointers telling. the SQ-80 which Sequences to play, and
in which order. A Song contains no Track Data. It doesn't have to be saved — it just stays like it is until
you change it, or Erase it. You can't do any harm to a Sequence or any of its Tracks by anything you do
in Song Edit Mode. When playing back a Song, any changes you make to a Sequence will only be saved
if you instruct the
SQ-80 to save them, as described earlier.
