Saving the track’s status
• The status of Keyboard tracks may be saved to a Performance
or STS, and can be changed when choosing a different Perfor-
mance or STS (see “Write Performance” on page 111 and “Write
Single Touch Setting” on page 111).
• The status of the Song tracks can be saved as a general setting
into the Global-Song Play Setup (by choosing the “Write Global-
Song Play Setup” command from the page menu, see (see “Write
Global-Song Play Setup dialog box” on page 181). Settings for
each Player can be different.
This allows for leaving the track status unchanged even when
playing a different Standard MIDI File. You can leave, for exam-
ple, the bass track in mute, and let your bassist play it live for the
whole show.
However, an exception to the above is when reading a Standard
MIDI File created with a Pa-Series instrument. These files do
include special commands to force the Play/Mute status of each
track.
Track names
Under the sliders, a label for each track is shown. Use the TRK.
SEL button to switch between the various track views.
