Song edit (data insert)

This will not affect the musical data in the
tracks. However it will determine how the
metronome is sounded when playing back or
recording. It may also be useful in the following
situation.
Most song edit jobs (pages 214 to 227)
require you to specify the area to be affected in
measures. If you want to use a song edit job on
an area which is not bounded by the existing
measure marks, you can edit a measure mark to
a suitable time signature (such as 1/16) so that
the measure marks now delimit the area where
you want to use the song edit job.
Measure (001...999): To move to another mea-
sure in the track, place the cursor here and
modify the data.
Time (01-08/4, 01-16/08, 01-32/16): This dis-
plays the time signature of the measure in the
track being edited.
Tempo is only displayed, and has no effect in
step record mode.
Used (0...100%): This displays the amount of
sequencer memory already used.
When the cursor is located in this area you can
move backwards and forwards through the data
in time (except in the Insert mode). If the current
measure is longer than four quarter notes (e.g., a
time signature of 10/8), a number will be
displayed here to indicate the section of the
measure now being displayed.
The measure bar represents one measure, and
vertical divisions represent one beat. A dot will
be displayed on the bar to indicate a 32nd note
area which contains data.
