E8 Remove Event - Yamaha PORTATONE PSR-5700 Authorized Product Manual

E8
REMOVE EVENT
Purpose:
Removes all occurrences of the specified event type (pitch
bend, modulation wheel, volume, or sustain operations) from
the specified measure or range of measures in the specified
track (accompaniment track not available).
Procedure:
buttons to switch between the three
Use the and
display screens, and the left or right [-] and [+] buttons to set
the track number (Track), the type of event to be removed
(Event), the number of the first measure in the range from
which the events are to be removed (TopMeas), and the
number of the last measure in the range from which the
events are to be removed (LastMeas).
Once the track, event, and measure numbers have been
specified, press the [+] button below "Execute" on the right
side of the display to actually execute the remove event op-
eration. "Sequencer Executing!" will appear on the lower
line of the display while the operation is in progress, and
"Completed!" will appear briefly when the operation has
finished.
Immediately after execution "Undo" will appear above the
right [-] button, and that button can be used to undo the re-
move event operation if it was executed by mistake. The
undo function is only available until the next operation is
performed.
The Event Abbreviations are:
PB = Pitch Bend
MOD = Modulation Wheel
VOL = Volume
SUS = Sustain
VC = Voice Change
Notes:
This function is handy if, for example, you've played
some wild pitch bends that don't sound right. You can re-
move only the offending pitch bends without erasing the
entire track.
Be careful when removing effect on/off events. If, for
example, you remove a pitch bend off event in a specified
measure, the pitch bend applied in a previous measure will
remain in effect until the next pitch bend event is encoun-
tered. Similarly, if you remove all program change events
from the beginning of a track, the voice that was initially
selected when the track was recorded will be used.
