Copy Mode
REPLACE, MERGE Specify how the copy is to take place
REPLACE:
The data at the specified copy destination will be
erased before the source data is copied.
MERGE:
The data at the specified copy destination will be pre-
served, and combined with the copied source data.
* If the Part setting is "CHORD" this parameter will not
appear; the Copy operation is performed using only the
REPLACE method.
* If the Part setting is "ALL," the Copy operation will
always be performed using REPLACE for the chord
progression.
* Copying with MERGE mode may result in large amounts
of overlapping data being recorded at the same location,
possibly producing unexpected results during playback.
4. To execute with the specified settings,
press [ENTER]. To cancel, press [EXIT].
The message "Now working..." will appear,
and the copy will be carried out.
When the copy is completed, the message
will disappear.
* If the time signature differs between the copy-source
pattern and the currently selected pattern (copy
destination), the data will be aligned to the time signature
of the currently selected pattern. This will change the
number of measures.
* If you attempt to perform a Copy operation that involves
more than 999 measures, the Copy operation will end
when the number of measures reaches 999.
* If the result of the copy operation has increased the
number of measures in the pattern, the Measures (p. 53)
indication in Patch Information will be updated
automatically.
5. If you want to save the pattern, proceed
to "Saving a pattern" (p. 65).
