12 functions: Quantize, Erase, Delete, Copy, Insert, Key,
Change Velo, Change Gate Time, Global Change, Shift
Clock, Track Length and Time Signat. There is also a
"Micro Edit" environment that allows you to add, delete
or change individual events. See page 103 for details.

Quantize
Use this function if you chose not to quantize your
music during recording and now realize that the tim-
ing is not quite what you expected it to be. If only
92
certain notes in a given time range need to be quan-
tized, you should narrow down the edit range using
the "From"/"To" parameters.

Explanation
Allows you to select
the track you wish to
edit. You can also
select "ALL" here, in
which case the opera-
tion applies to all
tracks.
Allows you to select
the Mode to be edited.
Use this parameter to
select the Division you
want to edit.
Refers to the first mea-
sure to be edited. By
default, the "From"
value is set to the
beginning of the
selected track(s).
Specifies the beat posi-
tion. The number of
selectable beats
depends on the
selected time signa-
ture.
Refers to the starting
CPT position. "CPT" is
short for "Clock Pulse
Time", the smallest unit
used by the BK-5 OR.
(There are 120 CPTs to
every beat of a 4/4
bar.) Change this set-
ting only if your edit
operation should start
after the selected beat.
This is where you spec-
ify the last measure to
be edited. By default,
the "To" position is set
to the last event of the
selected track (or the
last event of the long-
est track when you
select "All").
