FUNCTIONS AVAILABLE IN THE EDIT PAGES

EDIT (PAGE ONE)
EDIT Position: The F1 and Value -/+ buttons can be used to change the position of the sequence and the display will be updated accordingly.
Use the Cursor<> buttons to scroll events. If OPTIONS is set on On STEP TRACE in the menu, use the Cursor <> buttons to listen to
the notes played. This function is useful to trace parts of the sequence.
EDIT View: It allows you to select only certain types of events. Pressing F2 repeatedly will allow you to select in succession: ALL -> NOTE ->
CONTROL -> PROGRAM CHANGE. The display will be updated accordingly.
EDIT Modify: It allows you to change the selected sequence. Press the F6 button to access an edit window; use the Cursor <> buttons to move
around the various fields of the event that you want to change; use the Value -/+ buttons to change the selected field. Press
F10 (Execute) to confirm the operation or F5 (Escape) to cancel it. If, for example, you want to change the timbre, select the
event marked Progr in the Event field; press F6 (MODIFY), use the Cursor <> buttons to access the related box on field 1st; use
the Value -/+ buttons to select the new timbre, press F10 (Execute). For example, if you want to move a note, simply replace its
Position field with the new position.
EDIT Insert: This function allows you to insert a single event in any position. Press the F3 (INSERT) button to access an editing window. The
Event field is selected by default. Use the Value <> buttons to select the event type you want to insert. Use the Cursor <> buttons
to move around the various event fields to edit parameters. Press F10 to confirm the operation, or F5 to cancel it.
EDIT Delete: This function deletes a single event; press F4 (DELETE) to open the window (non editable) containing the selected event. If you
confirm by pressing F10, the event will be deleted. Press F5 to cancel the operation and the event will not be deleted.
EDIT (SECONDA PAGINA):
Press Page > to access the second edit page. Two important functions can be accessed from the second page; FADER and LOGICAL.
EDIT FADER: This function allows you to insert controls continuously so that you can give expression to the sequence. This function is use-
ful if, for example: You want to obtain a crescendo or fade an orchestra instrument. You want to move the Pan-pot continuou-
sly Left-center-Right to simulate movement. You want to change the filter of an instrument gradually (Cut-Off) in order to obtain,
for e.g., effects such as Wha-Wha.
Let us make an example so that the use of this function becomes clearer: Say you want to obtain a volume crescendo from 1 to
96 and then a decrescendo from 96 to 20. Let us suppose that the crescendo should go from bar 31 to bar 33; the decrescendo
from bar 33 to bar 36. Use the Cursor <> buttons to access the various function fields.

Bank = 5 (drawbars bank) the drawbars will play
Bank = 6 (ram bank) the ram timbres will play

In the case of PITCH BEND (or WHEEL) both 1st and 2nd indicate the pitch value of the bend wheel.
2nd: The meaning of this parameter, too, is different according to the type of event that is represented. The
range of values of this field is 0-127. In the case of note events, the parameter indicates the speed at which the
note was played. In the case of control events, it indicates the amount of such control; for example, the amount
of volume (7), reverb (91), chorus (93), expression (11), etc. For the pan-pot (10), value 64 means that the pan is
centered, while for smaller values the pan is moved to the left and for greater values it is moved to the right.
For the sustain (64), portamento (65), wha-wha (84), soft (67), sustained (66), value 0 means that the effect is
Off while value 127 indicates that it is On.
Event: It indicates the type of Note, Control, Program, Pitch Bend, Aftertouch event (there are no exclusive mes-
sages since they are recorded only on the MASTER TRACK).
Channel: It is the midi channel where the event was recorded.
