Yamaha SY85 Owner's Manual page 164

This event indicates a tempo change to occur over a specified number of
beats. The numbers above the [CS4] slider define the tempo change: the
number to the left of the slash (-99 ... 0 ... +99, or atmp for "a tempo") sets
the number of beats per minute by which the tempo will decrease or increase,
and the number to the right of the slash (0 ... 99) sets the number of beats
from the "tmp" mark over which the change will occur. A setting of "+20/8",
for example, would increase the tempo by 20 beats per minute over 8 beats (2
measures of 4/4 time). The [F4] function key is used to toggle the cursor
between the left and right numbers, and [CS4] is used to change the selected
number.
This sets one of 16 markers to be used by the rhythm track search function
described on page 165. [CS4] is used to specify the marker (A ... P).
The [F5] through [F8] function keys are used to access the rhythm track
edit functions described below:
SONG`EDIT`Insert`Part```````````````````
`Part:001=`ptn``***`````````````````````
This function is used to insert a new part at any point in an existing rhythm
track. Press [F5] to engage the rhythm track insert function after locating the
desired insert point via the main rhythm track edit screen, described above.
Then use [CS3] and [CS4] to specify the event to be inserted. The event types
that can be inserted and their parameters are exactly the same as those de-
scribed for the main rhythm track edit screen, above. Once the event to be
inserted has been specified, press [ENTER/YES] to begin the insert procedure.
The following confirmation display will appear:
SONG`EDIT`Insert`Part`````Are`you`sure`?
`Part:001=`ptn``***`````````````````````
Press [ENTER/YES] again to confirm that you want to go ahead with the
insert operation, or press [EXIT/NO] to cancel.
When the event has been inserted, "Completed!" will appear briefly on the
display, then the display will return to the main rhythm track edit mode.
