SEQ P11: Cue List What to do when playing back a cue list and the songs do not transition smoothly
161
Step, Song, Repeat, Load FX?
Step [Measure] [01...100 (M0001...M9999)]
This displays the step number and its starting measure.
Step indicates each step number. The Step indicated by the
symbol is the currently‐selected or currently‐playing step.
This can be directly selected by Song (Seq 11–1b) or Current
Step (Seq 11–1c). When stopped, pressing the START/STOP
( ) button will cause playback to begin from this step.
Measure indicates the starting measure of each step. This
cannot be edited.
Song (Cue Edit-Song)
[S000...S127: name/End, Continue to Step01]
S000...S127: Specifies a song for each step. This cannot be
edited during playback.
End and Continue to Step01 can be specified only for the
last step of the cue list.
End: Playback will stop at the last step of the cue list.
Continue to Step01: At the last step of the cue list, playback
will return to Step 01 and the cue list will continue playing
endlessly. To stop, press the START/STOP ( ) button.
The song position bar at the bottom indicates the location of
the current measure within the song of this step.
Repeat [01...64, FS]
Specifies the number of times that the song of this step will
be repeated.
FS:
A foot switch connected to the rear panel can be used to
specify the point at which the song will stop repeating. When
you press the foot switch, the current repetition of the song will
finish playing. Playback will then advance to the next step. Set
Foot Switch Assign
(Global 2–1a) to
Cue Repeat Control
.
Load FX? (Cue Edit-Load Fx) [Off, On]
Specifies whether the effects specified by the song assigned
to each step will be used.
On (checked): The effect settings of the song specified for
the current step will be used. When playback moves to the
next step, the effect settings will also change.
Off (unchecked): The effect settings will not change.
Depending on the effect settings, a certain amount of
time may be required to switch effects. In this case,
playback will not be smooth from song to song.
If you want to transition smoothly from song to song
inside of a cue list, check Load FX? in Step 01. For the
remaining steps, do not check Load FX?
With these settings, the effects will be set before
playback begins, so there will be no time lag to
interrupt the smooth transition between songs.
Although it is not possible to change the effect types in
the middle of a cue list, you can use the dynamic
modulation function or MIDI control changes (effect
control) to apply reverb more deeply to certain songs,
or raise the LFO speed for other songs, etc.
When using a cue list to construct a song, we
recommend this method. When you execute the
Convert to Song menu command, the effect settings of
the Step 01 song will be specified at the beginning of
the song that is created by the conversion.
Even when
Load FX?
is not checked, there may be a time
lag in the transition from one song to the next, depending
on the musical data in the song. There may also be cases in
which the musical data at the transition between songs
does not play at the correct timing. To fix this, you can edit
the musical data of the song, or convert the cue list to a
single song. If you use
Convert to Song
to convert the cue
list to a song, there will be no time lag at the transition, and
the musical data will play at the correct timing.
11–1c: Insert, Cut, Copy, Current Step
Insert
When you press the Insert button, the step data that was
temporarily saved in the buffer by the Copy button or Cut
button will be inserted at the Current Step. (If copy or cut
has not been executed, default data will be inserted.)
Cut
When you press the Cut button, the Current Step will be
cut, and its data will be saved temporarily in the buffer. If
you Insert immediately after you cut, the data will return
the state in which it was before you cut.
Copy
When you press the Copy button, the data of the Current
Step will be saved temporarily in the buffer.
Press the Insert button to insert the copied step into the
Current Step.
Current Step [01...100]
Selects the step that will be inserted, cut or copied.
If you wish to play back from a step in the middle of the cue
list, select the desired step here, and press the START/STOP
( ) button.
See “Creating and playing a Cue List” on page 74 of the
Operation guide.
What to do when playing back a cue list
and the songs do not transition smoothly
Different effect settings from song to song, and dense
amounts of playback data within the song, may cause a time
lag between songs or create timing problems during
transitions in cue‐list playback. In such cases, use Convert to
Song to transform the cue list into a single song. When you
play back this song, there will be no time lag at the
transition, and the data will play at the correct timing.
If the effect settings differ between songs, and you want to
smooth the transition between songs, check FX for Step 01.
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 specific song. We
recommend this method if you will be using a cue list to
construct the song.
When you execute the menu command Convert to Song, the
effect settings of the Step 01 song will be specified 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 song
transitions. 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 transitions, and
the musical data will be played at the correct timing.
When you complete a cue list and convert it into a song,
the track settings (e.g., program, pan, volume) of each
song will be converted into performance data so that
they will be reproduced correctly. However, it may not
be possible for the playback result of a cue list to be
