Song Clear - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-6000 Owner's Manual

in which the notes are to be shifted.
Once the track, shift, and measure numbers have
been specified, press EXECUTE LCD button to
actually execute the note shift operation. "Ex-
ecuting." will appear on the display while the
operation is in progress, and "Completed." will
appear briefly when the operation has finished.
Immediately after execution an "UNDO" LCD
button will appear on the left side of the display, and
that button can be used to undo the note shift
operation if it was executed by mistake. The undo
function is only available until the next operation is
performed.
NOTES
• The range of "SHIFT" values is from -24 to +24. A
setting of "0" produces no note shift. Each increment
represents a semitone, so a setting of +4, for example,
would shift the pitch of notes in the specified range up by an interval of a third. A setting of -12 would shift the notes down by one
octave.
• The ability to selectively shift the pitch of specified
measures and tracks makes it simple to create "modu-
lations" (key changes) without having to reprogram
entire passages, and to create simple harmonies.

SONG CLEAR

Deletes the entire song — i.e. deletes all data
from all sequencer tracks.
Use the CLEAR SONG LCD dials to select the
song to be cleared (1 ... 6), then press the EXECUTE
LCD button to execute the song clear operation. The
"Are you sure? " confirmation prompt will
appear on the display: press the YES LCD button to
go ahead with the clear operation, or the NO LCD
button to cancel. "Completed." will appear briefly
when the operation has finished.
NOTES
• Remember that this function deletes all data from the
specified song in one operation. If you think you might
want to keep the data for later use or editing, be sure
to save it to floppy disk (page 91) before executing the
song clear operation.
• Be careful with SONG CLEAR — it has no "undo"
function!
• The amount of sequencer memory used by each song
is shown to the right of the song numbers in kilobytes
(approximate). The total amount of free sequencer
memory remaining is shown in parentheses under
"SONG CLEAR" on the display.
