• 19 Edit Perf Sound/Sound Patch
«Edit Perf Sound» and «Edit Sound Patch» are
both edit facilities which permit the rapid modifi-
cation of a Sound or a Sound Patch by means of
'macro' edit parameters.
The modifications are associated to the tracks
and not to the Sound or Sound Patch, therefore,
any WK4 Sound that you assign to the edited
track will inherit the same modifications. If the
same Sound/Sound Patch is recalled by a differ-
ent track or Performance, it will not play with the
same modifications. Modified Sounds are iden-
tified by the symbol .
In Performances and Style-Performances, the
Drumkit/Sound Patch is conserved in the accom-
paniment tracks. When you change Style or
Performance and cause a change in the accom-
paniment tracks, the Drumkit/Sound Patch also
changes. Performances which contain a modi-
fied Drumkit/Sound Patch are identified by the
symbol
.
Advanced Edit Sound
A disk-based Operating System update can be
loaded into the WK4 which features an advanced
Edit Sound facility. This User Program, accessed
via the Option button, allows you to intervene di-
rectly on the sound parameters, not on track pa-
rameters as in «Edit Perf Sound». For more in-
formation about the advanced «Edit Sound» pro-
gram, contact your local Generalmusic dealer.
Sound and Sound Patch
The term "Sound" refers to all the WK4 Sounds
that are not Drumkits, nor contain a dynamic
switch. "Sound Patch" is a generic term used to
describe a Drumkit or a Sound containing a dy-
namic switch.
This section discusses SOUNDS in detail.
For details regarding Sound Patch editing, go to
page 5 of this chapter.
THE GENERAL EDIT PROCEDURE:
1. Select or create a Performance containing
the Sound or Drumkit/Sound Patch that re-
quires editing.
2. Select the track to which the Sound/S.Patch
to be edited is assigned.
3. Press SOUND in the EDIT section to enter
the «Edit Perf Sound» or «Edit Sound Patch»
editor.
4. Modify the parameters according to your re-
quirements.
5. Press SOUND or ESCAPE to exit the editor.
6. Save the modifications to the current Perform-
ance by pressing STORE PERFORMANCE
then ENTER.
During the editing tasks, you can periodically
store to the current Performance by pressing
STORE PERFORMANCE + ENTER.
7. Save the Performance to disk for future use.
Note: If you fail to store your modifications,
they will be irremediably lost when you select
another Performance, or reselect the same one.
