3 Press the [F7] (EDIT) key
When you press this key, the LCD screen EDIT
indication will change to DONE, and you will be
able to insert or delete songs into or from the cue
list.
4 Press the [F4] (Insert) key.
The step will be added.
5 Select a song for Step.
6 In Rep(Repeat), specify the number of times that
the song at each step will repeat.
7 If necessary, check the FX check box.
This species whether or not the effect settings will
also be changed when the song at that step is
played. If you want the effect settings to change,
check this box. For this example, check Step 01.
8 Press the [F4] (Insert) key to add the next step.
Refer to the table below, and add the appropriate
steps.
If you press [F5] (CUT), the selected step will be
deleted. If you press the [F4] (INSERT) key, that
step will be inserted. If you press the [F6] (COPY)
key, the selected step will be copied. If you press the
[F4] (INSERT) key, that step will be inserted.
Depending on the effect settings, a certain amount
of time may be required for the effects to be
switched. If this occurs, the playback will not be
smoothly connected from song to song.
To ensure a smooth transition from song to song,
check FX for Step 01. Do not check FX for
the remaining steps. This way, the effect settings
will be made before playback begins, and there
will be no time lag when cue list playback is
started or when switching from song to song.
Although it will not be possible to change effect
types within the cue list, you can use dynamic
modulation or MIDI control changes such as Effect
Control to control the effects within the cue list, for
example applying reverb more deeply on certain
songs, or raising the LFO speed for a specic song.
We recommend this method if you will be using a
cue list to construct the song. When you execute
the utility menu command Convert to Song, the
effect settings of the Step 01 song will be speci-
ed for the song that results from the conversion.
Even if FX is not checked, there may be cases in
which a time lag in the transition between songs,
depending on the musical data of the song. Also,
there may be cases in which the musical data is not
played at the correct timing at the transition
between songs. If this occurs, you can edit the
musical data of the song, or convert the cue list to a
song for playback. If you use Convert to Song to
convert the cue list to a song, there will be no time
lag during playback at the transition between
songs, and the musical data will be played at the
correct timing.

The name of a cue list can be specified by the
Rename Cue List page menu command.
If you wish to use the tempo that is specified by the
song of each step, set Tempo Mode to Auto. If
this is set to Manu (Manual), playback will use the
tempo that you specify in =.
If you specify Continue to Step01 for the last step,
the cue list will continue playing back repeatedly.
If you set Rep(Repeat) to FS, a foot switch
connected to the [ASSIGNABLE SWITCH] jack will
control the timing at which the song stops
repeating. Set Foot SW Assign (Global 6.1:
Controller, Foot page) to Cue Repeat Control.
When you play the keyboard, the program of the
