Editing a song

You can insert a new pattern into a song, or delete an existing
pattern. You can also add knob movements or your own per-
formance to a song.
If you wish to keep the edited song, you must perform
the Write operation. If you select a different song or turn
off the power without performing the Write operation,
the song will return to the state in which it was before
you edited it.
Inserting a pattern at a specified posi-
tion (Insert Pattern)
You can insert a pattern at a specified position, and subsequent
patterns will be moved backward (toward the end of the song).
1. If the song is playing, press the Stop/Cancel key to stop
playback.
2. Hold down the Shift key and press step key 11 (Insert Pat-
tern). (The 11 key will blink.)
3. The position indication in the display will blink. Rotate the
dial to select the position at which you wish to insert a pat-
tern. (For example if you wish to insert a pattern into posi-
tion 3. make the display blink "003.")
4. Press step key 11 once again, and a pattern will be inserted
in front of that position. (The key will go dark.)
To cancel, press the Stop/Cancel key.
The pattern that is inserted will be the pattern which had pre-
viously been at that position. Now you can specify the de-
sired pattern for the position that was inserted.
Data following the inserted pattern will be moved backward.
