Seq P11: Cue List; 11-1: Cue List - Korg M3 Parameter Manual

SEQ P11: Cue List

The cue list allows you to playback multiple songs in
succession. You can specify a number of repetitions for each
song.
The M3 allows you to create twenty cue lists. In a single cue
list you can freely connect up to 99 songs.
Each unit in a cue list is called a "step," and you can specify
a song number and a repeat (number of repetitions) for each
step.
For example you could create each part of a song (intro,
melody A, melody B, break, solo backing, ending etc.) as an
individual song, and use a cue list to play the intro twice,
melody A four times, melody B four times, the break twice,
melody A four times ... etc. to produce the entire song. In
cases when you wish to change the structure of the song,
this Cue List function can help you work more efficiently.
The menu command Convert to Song lets you convert the
songs in a cue list into a single song.
For example you can use a cue list to create the backing,
convert the cue list to a song, and then add solo phrases on
unused tracks.

Location [0001:01.000...9999:16.191]
This displays the current location within the selected cue
list.
From the left, the numbers indicate the measure, beat, and
clock. Each can be set separately, and this will change the
current location within the cue list.
The range of the beat and clock will depend on the time
signature of the corresponding song.
When MIDI Clock (Global 1–1a) is Internal, a Song
Position Pointer message will be transmitted each time
you change the location within the cue list. If MIDI
Clock is set to External MIDI or External USB, and
Receive Ext. Realtime Commands (Global 1–1a) is
turned on, receiving a Song Position Pointer message
from the specified source will cause the location to
change.
If the location exceeds the allowable data range of a
Song Position Pointer message, it will not be
transmitted.
Meter (Time Signature)
This displays the time signature of the currently-playing
song.
(Tempo)
Specifies the tempo at which the song in the cue list will be
played). For more information, please see " (Tempo)" on
page 121.
Tempo Mode
Auto: Playback will follow the tempo specified by each song
in the cue list. It will not be possible to change the (Tempo)
setting during playback.
Manu (Manual): Tempo specified in the song will be
ignored, and playback will use the tempo specified above
for (Tempo).
Cue List Select
Selects the cue list that you wish to play.
When using a cue list to play songs, you must first load the
necessary data into internal memory, either from media
(floppy disk etc.), or by a MIDI data dump from an external
sequencer.
When MIDI Clock (Global 1–1a) is Internal, selecting a
cue list in this page will cause a Song Select message
(corresponding to the cue list number) and Song
Position Pointer message to be transmitted. When
MIDI Clock is External MIDI or External USB, a Song
Select message from the specified source will switch
cue lists.

Track Select
Selects the track that you wish to play manually from the
keyboard along with the playback of the cue list.
While a cue list is playing, you can play along using the
track settings and musical data of the song selected by the
current Step (Seq 11–1b).
The track selected here can be specified independently for
each song in the cue list.
When you are playing back different songs in succession,
and want to play along using the same program on the
keyboard, set Track Select (Seq 0–1–1(2)a) to the same track
and program for each step.
At the right you can view the program bank, program
number, and name of the program selected for Track Select.
