The "Change" edit mode is initially selected when the edit mode is
engaged. To edit any note or other event in the song or pattern, simply
move the cursor to the appropriate line, and then to the required parameter
within that line. The [-1] and [+1] buttons can then be used to select a new
value for the selected parameter. The edited line will flash when any param-
eter within it is changed. This indicates that a change has been made but
has not yet been entered. Press the [ENTER] button to actually enter the
changes, or move the cursor to another line to cancel the changes.
The available parameters depend on the selected event type. The
note event parameters are listed below. See "Insert Mode Editing" (page
221) for other event types.
Beat-clock
The first column contains the note location data. The left number is
the beat within the current measure (1 through 4 in a 4/4 measure,
for example.), and the right number is the clock within that beat (000
through 479 in case of 1/4-note beat). The beat and clock values can
be selected and edited independently.
Pitch
This is the actual pitch of the note. The range is from C-2 to G8.
Gate Time
Gate time is the length of the note in beats and clocks. The number
to the left of the colon is 1/4-beats and the number to the right is
clocks within a 1/4-beat. A normal 1/4 note, for example, is 432
clocks long. This is about 90% of the actual length of a 1/4-note divi-
sion, which is 480 clocks. The "normal" length of the note is slightly
shortened to prevent notes from running into each other and sound-
ing slurred ( a slur is produced by setting the full note length). The
beat-clock range is from 00:001 to 99:479.
