Editing a Waveform Sequence
When editing a waveform sequence, you can:
— change the number of times each segment or nested sequence plays
— delete segments or nested sequences from the sequence
— add segments or nested sequences to the sequence
— toggle markers on and off (described on page 181)
— save changes either to the current waveform sequence or as a new sequence
If you exit the sequence editing menu before saving changes, the changes are lost.
Sequences save to the Seq file catalog.
Use the following steps to edit a sequence that has two different segments so that the first
segment repeats 100 times and the second segment repeats 200 times, then save the changes.
If you edit and resave a segment used in a sequence, the sequence does
not automatically update the RMS value in its header. You must select and
update the sequence header information (page 163).
