Song Mode
Getting Started with the Sequencer

4. Now press the EVENT soft button to bring up the Event Editor, which will look
something like this:
EditSong:EVENT||(Ch|1)|||||||<>Track:1||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|CTRL|BANK|||0|||||||||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|PCHG|||52|||||||||||||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|CTRL|VOL||127|||||||||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|CTRL|PAN|||64|||||||||
|Cut||||Copy||Paste|||View||AllOn||Done|
As you can probably decipher, the Event Editor gives you access to an editable list of all
note, controller, and other MIDI events that Song mode uses to describe your sequence.
While you’re looking at the Event Editor, notice the data that the sequencer keeps track of,
even when no notes are played.
5. Use the Alpha wheel to scroll to the bottom of the event display.
The last event listed is your endpoint, which should be the first beat of the measure
following the last measure you want to record. For our four measures of silence, then, the
endpoint should be 5:1. The display below, however, shows that five measures have been
recorded:
EditSong:EVENT||(Ch|1)|||||||<>Track:1||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|CTRL|VOL||127|||||||||
|||1:1||||1:1.000|CTRL|PAN|||64|||||||||
|||6:1||||6:1.000|END|||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|Cut||||Copy||Paste|||View||AllOn||Done|
Fortunately, it’s quite easy to change the endpoint from "6:1" to "5:1" to remove the extra
measure that’s been accidentally recorded. (If your endpoint is at 5:1, you won’t need to
change it now. If, however, your endpoint is less than or greater than 5:1, you should
proceed with the next step.)
6. Check the endpoint, and change it if necessary.
To change the endpoint from 6:1 (or any other incorrect value) to 5:1, press the right arrow
button to position the cursor in the Bar:Beat:Tick column ("6:1.000" in the above example).
Type "51000" then press the ENTER button. The endpoint is changed, and the song is now
four measures long.
7. Press EXIT to return to the SongMode:MAIN page.
If you’ve made changes in the Event Editor, confirm them now.
8. Make sure that record mode and play mode are set to "Loop."
From the SongMode:MAIN page, press the MISC button. Set the RecMode parameter on
the SongMode:MISC page to "Loop".
The PlayMode parameter should already be set to "Loop". If it isn’t, turn the alpha wheel
until "Loop" is highlighted.
