SysEx Ers
This parameter is set to zero on power-up and is incremented
whenever a SyxEx message is rejected because of a checksum
error. You can manually edit the value back to zero at any time.
Check the value of this parameter after a SysEx load to verify that
all data was received correctly.
Exiting Global Edit Mode
You can leave Global Edit mode at any time by pressing the Exit
button. This returns you to the Global Select menu where you can
select a different object to edit. Press Exit again to return to Play
Mode. Changes to Global parameters take effect immediately, so
you donÕt need to save them.
Other Global Objects
These include the User Scales, User Rhythms, Setup Lists, Setup
Map, and MIDI Messages. MIDI Messages are discussed in
Appendix A. The remaining Global Objects are described in this
chapter.
User Scales
The ExpressionMate offers you 8 user-editable scales in addition
to the 16 standard scales described on page 47.
To enter the Scale Editor from Play mode, press the Global
button, then press Edit (<) followed by Select (<) to scroll
through the list of objects. When ÒEDIT ScalesÓ appears on the
top line of the display, press Edit (>). Press the left cursor (<) to
select the scale you want to edit and then press the right cursor
(>) to begin editing that scale. Remember that the scales, like all
of the global parameters and tables, are edited ÒliveÓ. This means
that the changes you make will take effect immediately.
When you enter a scale you will see
