Phrase Edit Mode Display (Edit Change):
The Phrase Edit display is virtually the same as the
Song Edit, the only difference being that the Phrase Edit
display has no track-related functions. [The track
number and name does not appear, and the Change
Track (ChngTr) and Track Name (TrNam) functions are
not available.]
In the Song mode, select the Song and track you wish to
edit. In the Phrase mode, select the User Phrase you
wish to edit. When you call up the Edit mode, the Edit
Change mode is automatically selected.
NOTE:
• Only User Phrases can be edited; the Edit mode cannot
be called up when a Preset Phrase is selected.
• The Edit mode is available only in the Song and Phrase
modes.

Track Number/Name
Event line
The timing, note, gate time, and velocity values for each
note are shown on a single line of the display. These
are called Event lines and are arranged in order from top
to bottom. Each time you select an Event line (that
contains a note), the corresponding note plays automati-
cally, letting you hear the notes to be edited.
In addition to the Event lines, there are markers for the
top of the song, measure lines, and the end of the song.
3.
With an Event line highlighted, change the note
location, pitch, gate time, or velocity as desired.
Then, press E to actually change the value, or
highlight another Event line to cancel the change.
When you make a change in any value, the entire Event
line flashes. You can then press E to actually
enter the change, or move to another Event line to avoid
changing the value.
Measure/Beat/Clock

• To enter a new location for the note: ...............................
Highlight the Measure, Beat or Clock parameter (the
hyphenated values at the left of the Event line), and change

Beat is the 1/4-note beat within the current measure (1
through 4 in a 4/4 measure). Clock is the clock within that
beat (0 through 95). The Measure parameter appears only
when the Event line is selected.
