The Save Changes Dialog - Kurzweil PC3K Series Musician's Manual

Song Mode and the Song Editor
Song Mode: The MAIN Page
PC3K's transport to control an external sequencer. This works from any mode, though in
Program mode you will want to make sure that the Demo Button function is set to off. You can
do this from Master Mode, Page 2. When Demo Button is set to off, you can still hear Program
demos by pressing the cursor up and down buttons simultaneously.
Important Note About External Sequencers:
If using the PC3K transport controls to record to an external sequencer, you must be in Song
mode with the RecTrk set to None. If this is not done, you will simultaneously record to the
external sequencer and the selected RecTrk if in Song Mode, or activate the Quick Song
Recording function from other modes. This will cause unwanted sequences to be recorded in the
PC3K's sequencer.
If you are also triggering PC3K sounds from the external sequencer, you will run into the same
issue when using the transport on the external sequencer (if it is sending MMC.) In this case,
either turn off outgoing MMC on the external sequencer, or use the same precautions as above.
The Load and Save Buttons
The Load soft button calls up a scrolling list from which you can quickly locate and load a
sequence. You can select a sequence using either the Alpha Wheel or ‐/+ buttons, or you can
enter a sequence's ID number.
The Save button calls up the "Save As" dialog.
The NewSng and ClrSng Soft Buttons
The NewSng soft button creates a new song using the Default Sequence (specified on Page 2 of
Master Mode) as a parameter template. Pressing this button is the same as selecting 0*New
Song*.
The ClrSng soft button creates a new song whose parameters are set to the default values listed
in the table beneath this section's header (Song Mode: The MAIN Page). Keep in mind that the
selected program for the new song will be the currently selected program.

The Save Changes Dialog

The following dialog appears after you have recorded a track and pressed Stop, or if you have
entered the Song Editor and made changes, then pressed Exit, or if you press Save in the Song
Editor.
The PlyNew soft button allows you to play the song with your last recorded performance. You
will likely want to hear this first.
