Song Editor: Track Functions
Grab
Grab is similar to the Copy function, except that the Grab function allows you to copy selected
data from tracks that exist in other songs in memory.
SrcSong: Song List
The Source Song parameter is set to the ID and name of the song in memory that contains the
desired track data you wish to grab in order to use it in the current song. The source track is
determined by the Track parameter displayed on upper right hand side of the page, selectable
with the Chan/Layer buttons.
DstTrack: 1 to 16/All
Select a destination track for the grabbed events with the DstTrack parameter. All selected
events from the source song and track described in the Region/Criteria box will be placed in the
destination track(s) at any bar, beat, and tick you specify.
If the currently selected track is All tracks then the destination track will be All tracks as well.
No matter what channel the current track (source track in the source song) is set to when you
use the grab function, the events will be played on the destination track's channel.
Location: Bars : Beats : Ticks
Specify a bar, beat, and tick location in the destination track where the grabbed data will be
placed with the Location parameter. If the length of the grabbed region extends from the
Location point beyond the song's existing End point, a new End point is defined.
Mode: Merge/Erase/Slide
The Mode setting determines whether the grabbed events merge with, or erase existing events
on the destination track from the location point to the end of the grabbed region. With Mode set
to Slide, the sequencer creates space for the new events, and slides the existing events to
uniformly later times in the song.
Times: 1 to 127
The value selected for the Times parameter determines how many copies of the selected region
are placed, one after another, in the destination track.
12-29
