Chapter 8 Creating and Editing Songs

■ Copying Measures (Copy)

You can copy a portion of a performance to a different bar in
the same Part or to a measure in another Part. This is handy
when you're composing a song that repeats a similar phrase.

Choosing "All" copies all Parts. "- - -" appears
in the <Dst> column.

If you choose a Track, you can only copy to the
selected Track. You cannot copy to the other
Track. "- - -" appears in the <Dst> column.
Dst Copy-destination part number
Data can be copied in the following three ways:
Replace
If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, this previous recording is erased,
and the copied data is written in its place.
Mix
If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, the copied data is layered over the
Mode
previous recording. If the Tones used for the
copy source and copy destination are different,
the copy-destination Tone is used.
Insert
If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, the copied portion is inserted
without erasing the previous recording. The
song is lengthened by the number of inserted
measures.

■ Correcting Timing
Discrepancies (Quantize)
You can correct for timing discrepancies in a recorded
performance by automatically aligning the music with the
timing you specify. This is called "Quantizing."
As an example, let's say that the timing of some quarter-
notes in a performance is a little off. In this case, you can
quantize the performance with quarter-note timing, thus
making the timing accurate.
