Chapter 8 Creating and Editing Songs
→ "PC" stands for "Program Change," which is a command that
tells an instrument to change the sound it's using. With songs
that rely on the use of a variety of sounds, a "PC" needs to be
located at every point within the song where the Tone is to be
changed
* Some edits can't be undone, not even by choosing "Undo." We
recommend saving songs to external memories or to user memory
before editing. For more on how to save songs, refer to "Saving
Songs" (p. 116).
