Channel Edit
The explanations here apply to step 5 on
data. Select the Target channel then edit the desired parameters.
After editing the desired parameter, touch [Execute] to actually enter the edits for each setup window. When execution is
completed, this button changes to [Undo], letting you restore the original data if you are not satisfied with the results. The
Undo function only has one level; only the previous operation can be undone.
NOTE
If you select a preset Audio Style (CVP-709 only) as starting data, the Audio part will be used as is. The Audio part cannot be
deleted, edited or created from scratch.
Target Ch Select the target channel to be edited. All items with the exception of the "Groove" are to be applied
to the channel specified here.
Groove This lets you add swing to the music or change the "feel" of the beat by making subtle shifts in the
timing (clock) of the Style. The Groove settings are applied to all channels of the selected Section.

Specifies the beats to which Groove timing is to be applied. In other words, if "8
Beat" is selected, Groove timing is applied to the 8th notes; if "12 Beat" is
selected, Groove timing is applied to 8th-note triplets.
Actually changes the timing of the beats (specified in the "Original Beat"
parameter above) to the selected value. For example, when Original Beat is set
to "8 Beat" and Beat Converter is set to "12, " all 8th notes in the section are
shifted to 8th-note triplet timing. The "16A" and "16B" Beat Converter which
appear when Original Beat is set to "12 Beat" are variations on a basic 16th-
note setting.
Produces a "swing" feel by shifting the timing of the back beats, depending on
the "Original Beat" parameter above. For example, if the specified Original
Beat value is "8 Beat", the Swing parameter will selectively delay the 2nd, 4th,
6th, and 8th beats of each measure to create a swing feel. The settings "A"
through "E" produce different degrees of swing, with "A" being the most subtle
and "E" being the most pronounced.
Selects a variety of Groove "templates" to be applied to the selected section. The
"Push" settings cause certain beats to be played early, while "Heavy" settings
delay the timing of certain beats. The numbered settings (2, 3, 4, 5) determine
which beats are to be affected. All beats up to the specified beat — but not
including the first beat — will be played early or delayed (for example, the 2nd
and 3rd beats, if "3" is selected). In all cases, "A" types produce minimum effect,
"B" types produce medium effect, and "C" types produce maximum effect.
