Erase Measure
This command erases the specified type(s) of musical data
from the specified range of measures. The Erase Measure
command can also be used to remove only a specific type of
data. Unlike the Delete Measure command, executing the
Erase Measure command does not cause the subsequent
measures of musical data to be moved forward.
1. Use Track Select to select the MIDI track (Track 01–16),
master track that contains the measures of data you
want to erase.
2. Select "Erase Measure" to open the dialog box.
3. In From Measure select the first measure to be erased,
and in To End of Measure select the last measure to be
erased.
(By default, From Measure and To End of Measure will be
set to the range that you specified in the Track Edit page.)
4. If you are erasing MIDI data, use Kind to specify the
type of data that will be erased.
All will erase all types of data in that track, Note will erase
note data, Control Change will erase control change data,
After Touch will erase both channel pressure and poly key
pressure data, Pitch Bend will erase pitch bend data,
Program Change will erase program change data, and
Exclusive will erase exclusive data.
5. Specify the track(s) on which you want to execute the
command.
If you execute with All Tracks unchecked, the command
will be executed only on the data of the track you selected in
Track Select"
If you check All Tracks, the command will be executed on
the data of all tracks.
6. To execute the Erase Measure command, press the OK
button. To cancel, press the Cancel button.
Example: If measures 2–3 are erased, measures 2–3 will be blank.

If control data extends across measures that were
erased and measures that were not erased, only the
data within the range being erased will be erased.
However if note data extends across two or more
measures, deleting any of the intervening measures will
delete that note data from the following measures as
well.
Note: Note data can also be erased using Shift/Erase Note.
Use this command when you wish to erase a specific range
of notes, or to erase notes from a specific Beat.Tick.
Note: Control Change data can also be erased using Erase
Control Data. Use this when you wish to erase a specific
type of control change, or to erase control change data from
a specific Beat.Tick range.

Delete Measure
This command deletes the specified measures.
When the Delete Measure command is executed, the
musical data following the deleted measures will be moved
towards the begining of the sequence.
1. Use Track Select to select the MIDI track (Track 01–16)
that contains the measures you want to delete.
2. Select "Delete Measure" to open the dialog box.
3. In From Measure select the first measure that you wish
to delete, and in To End of Measure select the last meas-
ure that you wish to delete.
(By default, From Measure and To End of Measure will be
the range that you specified in the Track Edit page.)
4. Specify the track(s) on which you want to execute the
command.
If you execute with All Tracks unchecked, the command
will be executed only on the data of the track you selected in
Track Select.
If you check All Tracks, the command will be executed on
the data of all tracks.
5. To execute the Delete Measure command, press the OK
button. To cancel, press the Cancel button.
Example: When measures 3–5 are deleted, measures 6–8 are moved forward.

If in step 4 you uncheck All Tracks and execute this
operation, the measures will not be deleted from the
master track. Time signature and tempo data will
remain unchanged, and the time signature and tempo
of the measures that were moved forward as a result of
the Delete operation will change.
Example: When measures 2 and 3 (3/4 time) of track 2 are deleted, the measures that were
at 4 and 5 are moved forward, and their time signature will change to 3/4.

If in step 4 you check All Tracks and execute this
operation, the specified measures of musical data will
be deleted from all tracks including the master track,
and the time signature and tempo will also move
forward by the number of measures that were deleted.
If control data extends across a line between measures
that were deleted and measures that were not deleted,
only the data within the range being deleted will be
erased.
