The Custom Accompaniment Programmer
Immediately after execution "UndoExecute" will appear
above the right [-] button, and that button can be used to
undo the remove event operation if it was executed by mis-
take. The undo function is only available until the next op-
eration is performed.
The Event Abbreviations are:
PB = Pitch Bend
MOD = Modulation Wheel
VOL = Volume
SUS = Sustain
Notes:
This function is handy if, for example, you've played
some wild pitch bends that don't sound right. You can re-
move only the offending pitch bends without erasing the
entire track.
Only the VOL event type can be selected when the
RHYTHM tracks is selected.
Be careful when removing effect on/off events. If, for
example, you remove a pitch bend off event in a specified
measure, the pitch bend applied in a previous measure will
remain in effect until the next pitch bend event is encoun-
tered.
The REMOVE EVENT function cannot be used with
tracks containing preset data.
Procedure:
Use the left [-] and [+] buttons to select either "Normal"
if you want to edit the normal accompaniment pattern, or
"I/F/E" if you want to edit the INTRO, FILL or ENDING
pattern. If you select "I/F/E", the next step is to use the
right [-] and [+] buttons to select "Intro", "Fill" or "End-
ing".
Once the desired pattern has been selected, go back to
the preceding screens and create your custom accompani-
ment.
