SONG-PERFORMANCES
Normally,
Sound
(ProgramChange and BankSelect) are inserted
in the single track. Effects change messages are
inserted in the Master Track.
Using the Song-Performance is an alternative and
rapid method of changing Sounds and Effects.
Song-Performances instantly reset the instru-
ment, therefore, they are very useful during a real
time Song recording.
Generally, when programming a Song from an
external computer, it is convenient to insert all
the messages in the tracks, while during a real
time Song recording, it is better to program sev-
eral Song-Performances and select them during
the recording. The selection message is recorded
in the Master Track as a ProgramChange.
Each Song contains up to 8 Performances, which
are loaded and memorized with the correspond-
ing Song.
When a MIDI file is saved, Performances are con-
verted in track data (ProgramChange, Pan, Vol-
ume, effects send).
To select Song Performances, refer to the Selec-
tion chapter of the Reference Gide.
PROGRAMMING SONG-PERFORMANCES
The method used to program Song-Perform-
ances is identical to that used for the Perform-
ances of the Performance Groups (Real). Refer
to the Store Performance procedure discussed
on page 2.38 in the Quick Guide.
A Song has a maximum of 32 tracks.
Note: After having programmed or modified a
Song-Performance, press STORE PERFORM-
ANCE to save it to RAM. The selection of another
or the same Performance or pressing STOP and
PLAY, will erase the modifications.

PLAYBACK CONTROL BUTTONS
The buttons which control the playback of Songs
in memory are in the SEQUENCER section.
PLAY
This button starts the Song playback (or record-
ing). During the playback, the LED on the PLAY
button is on. The location (LOC) in the display
shows the current position of the Song. If the
Song is not playing, pressing PLAY starts the
Song from the current position.
<</>>
The << and >> buttons rewind or advance one
measure (bar) at a time. If you hold these but-
tons pressed, the Song rewinds or advances at
high speed. These buttons are active either in
Song play or stop status.
During playback, the DIAL changes the Song's
playing speed (tempo).
STOP
This button stops the Song playback (or record-
ing). When the Song has been stopped at a po-
sition that differs to the initial Song start position,
the LED on the STOP button flashes. When the
Song is not playing and at its initial starting posi-
tion, the LED on the STOP button remains on.
