Panic Button
The PANIC button sends an "all notes off' command to the
MIDI device. Although the Stop command keeps track of
which notes are on and turns them off, some keyboards get
confused and leave a note or notes on. Simply click on the
PANIC button
to
turn the notes off.
.:. Note:
The all notes off command will take a few
seconds to complete.
You may need put a delay between the note off commands to
give your device time to respond. Use the "Set MIDI Delay"
option under the Setup menu to set the Panic Button Delay.
Try a delay of 532 and adjust from there as needed. (See "Set
MIDI Delay" in the Setup chapter.)

received. The Editor enables you to work with the piece
after you've entered it. To modify a segment, you must select
it from the Editor window. Once selected,
you
can use the
options under the Edit menu to Copy and Paste repeated
segments. If you missed a note in a track, you can record that
measure on another track and then paste it into the piece at
the proper location.
