specified measures of the track by a specified
interval.

To quit: without executing press EXIT.
SONG EDIT JOBS
Summary: This operation conserves sequencer
memory by deleting approximately every other
occurrence of a specified type of continuous con-
troller from specified measures of the track.
Procedure:
From: song edit job directory
Select: 06:ThinOut
Specify: the area of track measures which you
wish to thin out and specify the type of
data to be thinned out.
To execute: the operation press ENTER.
To quit: without executing press EXIT.
Top Measure (001...999): Specify the first mea-
sure to be affected.
Last Measure (001...999): Specify the last
measure to be affected.

6. Thin out
(JUMP #600)
(JUMP #606)
Parameters: You may thin out more than one type
Top Measure (001...999): Specify the first mea-
sure to be affected.
Last Measure (001...999): Specify the last
measure to be affected.
Interval (-99...+99): The note number of all
notes will be transposed by the specified inter-
val. Settings of +1...+99 will transpose up-
wards, and settings of -1...-99 will transpose
downwards. The note number is limited to a
range of 0 (C-2) to 127 (G8), and the note num-
bers resulting from this operation will not exceed
these limits.
After Touch (on, off): When this is set "on",
channel aftertouch data will be thinned out.
(Polyphonic aftertouch is not received or
recorded by the SY77.)
Pitch Bend (on, off): When this is set "on",
pitch bend data will be thinned out.
Control Change (on, off): When this is set "on",
all continuous control change data will be
thinned out. Switch-type controllers such as
sustain on/off will not be affected.
of data at once.
When you move a continuous controller slowly,
many messages with closely spaced data will be
transmitted. You can usually delete half of them
without any audible difference. If you are running
low on sequencer memory, thinning out some
continuous data can help. Repeating the thin out
operation several times will eventually produce
rough changes in controller data, which can be an
interesting effect in itself.
