Roland G-800 - Page 75

User Style Microscope mode, Track Microscope Edit
The Insert function consists of two pages: the first page is used to add an event at the selected
position (using Bar, Beat and CPT), while the second page allows you to define the Status
(note, control change, etc.) and values of that event.
Note: It is perfectly possible to insert an event at a position that already contains one. This allows
you to add the missing note of a chord, for example. Be sure, however, not to assign two control
changes of the same number (e.g. Pan, CC10) and with different values to the same position.
Bar (1-9999) [DRUMS/PART]
Allows you to specify the bar where the event should be inserted.
Beat (1-[number of beats per bar]) [ACCOMP/GROUP]
Allows you to specify the beat within the selected bar (see above).
CPT [BANK]
This parameter sets the CPT value of the new event. Here is a table of the most commonly
used notes and their CPT values:
Proceed (Part Select [UPPER1])
After specifying the position of the new event, press Part Select [UPPER1] to select the sec-
ond Insert page, where you can assign a function (Status) and value(s) to the new event:
EVECUTE] STATUS z DAT Ace
Look at the above display illustration: this time, the Status, Value and Gate Time dashes are
inverted (while on the previous page, only the position is inverted) to signal that the G-800 is
now waiting for instructions regarding the newly inserted event.
Status [ACCOMP/GROUP]
Use the [ACCOMP/GROUP] knob to select the Status of the new event (note, control change,
etc., see the table on page 71). To insert a note event, you can also press the corresponding
key on the G-800’s keyboard. That will also assign a velocity value to that event. If the velo-
city value is not the one you need, either press the same key again (pressing it harder or softer)
or use the [BASS/BANK] knob to set it.
Note: You can only program one note at a time. Playing a chord will only enter the last note you
played.
Data-1 [BASS/BANK]
This knob can only be used to set the “note name: note number” (e.g. C#2 : 37) of note events.
If you select another event using the Status knob (see above), the [BASS/BANK] knob cannot
be used.
