4. On the Song:MIXER page, press the Keep soft button to store initial values for all tracks (see
below.)
5. On the Song:MIXER page, press the Done soft button or the front panel Exit button. You will be
asked to save changes to your song, just as in Part 3, step 4 of this guide (see above.) Saving your
song completes the process of storing initial volume settings with your song.
Pressing the Keep soft button on the Song:MIXER page stores initial values of volume, pan, and
program number for each track. Initial values are the settings that will be used when your song
is played back from the beginning. Volume, pan, and program settings can change automatically
over the course of the song if you change them while recording, but pressing the Keep button
stores the current value for each setting to be recalled at the song's beginning.
6. Follow the above procedure in steps 4 and 5 to store current values as initial values after changing
any volume, pan, or program parameters.
Note: Most users will want to store initial values as described above. Advanced users may not want to
store initial values for every track. See the Song Mode chapter:The MAIN Page, Program, Volume, and
Pan sections for details on saving an initial value for a single track only.
Part 6 b: Recording Volume Automation
You can also record volume automation. Volume automation is the method of recording a series
of volume event messages that change a track's Vol parameter over the course of the song. This
is useful for fading instruments in or out of a song, or adjusting instrument volumes for only
specific sections of a song.
1. On the Song mode MAIN page, make sure the Mode parameter is set to Merge (see below.) (Also
make sure the Punch parameter has been turned off, as in Part 5, step 9, above.)
