Edit Song: ARRANGE Page
This page allows you to create a song by arranging other songs together in the order you
specify. The other songs become sections (called Steps) of the current song, which can be
repeated, transposed, etc. You can even trigger Steps by striking speciÞc keys on the controller.
You can also create an arrangement of other songs to play back simultaneously with the current
song. This gives you up to 32 tracks: 16 tracks in the current song plus 16 in the song or songs
called by the arrangement (which are speciÞed by the ARRANGE pageÕs Song parameter). The
arrangement you create can be as simple as including another song to add more tracks to your
composition, or as complex as you can imagine.
More often than not, you would want to start using the Arrange feature from a "New Song" that
doesnÕt have any track data recorded yet. Press the ARRANG soft button on the COMMON
page to enter the EditSong : ARRANG page, gaining access to a group of arrangement speciÞc
parameters. All Songs have these parameters for creating complex arrangements of existing
Song Objects, using ranges of the keyboard and realtime performance controls for triggering
steps, but not every Song will utilize them.
When a Song containing an Arrangement is selected as the ÒCurSongÓ from the MAIN page,
three dashes (---) appear above the Track parameter name to indicate that the current Song has
been saved with programmed arrangement data.
When an Arrangement is PLAYING, the three dashes on the MAIN page are replaced with the
ID# of the Song currently being played (or triggered) in the Arrangement, and the number of
the current Step.
The square Track Mode Indicators will ßash when MIDI data is present on the tracks during
play back of an arrangement. The actual track data playing back is supplied by the Songs
entered into the steps of an arrangement.
