ERASE SONG 01

Pressing the RECORD button will erase the currently selected song number. The eight

track buttons are Inactive when erasing songs. The page up and page down buttons are

also Inactive when erasing songs.

In all cases, the erase Is not executed until RECORD Is pressed, and will be aborted if

ERASE is released before pressing RECORD. The ERASE button has no effect while a

song or part Is playing.

COPY

The copy button Is used to copy or append a track, part, or song, to another track, part, or

song. It only functions while the COPY button is held down. If the COPY button is

released (either before or after the copy Is executed), the previous mode will show up on

the display, and copy mode Is exited.

Copying a PART to Itself

When in PART mode, and COPY is pressed and held, all 8 track LEDs will light, and the

display will read:

COPY FROM PART

01 TOPARTfll

Both displayed part numbers will actually display the current part number (00-99). Pressing

RECORD completes the operation, and the display reads:

COPY COMPLETE

This display remains until the RECORD button is released, which then returns the

sequencer to the previous copy display (unless COPY Is released as well). The above

example demonstrated copying a part (all 8 tracks) to itself, which will double the length of

that part.

Copying a PART to another PART

To copy a part to another part, press and hold COPY, then enter the two digit part number

with the keypad. The display will show the selected part number. Pressing RECORD

Initiates the copy, and appends the source part (the current part before COPY was

pressed) to the destination part (the part entered with the keypad). Again, all 8 track LEDs

are lit, so all 8 tracks are copied.

If the destination part was empty, then the destination now contains an exact copy of the

source part. If the destination was not empty, then the destination's length Is Increased by

the length of the source part, and the source part Is appended to the end of the

destination part. Any MIDI assignments made on the source part's tracks will be overridden

by the destination part's MIDI assignments.

Copying a TRACK to Itself

To copy a single track to itself (useful for erasing all but one type of MIDI Information, see

below), press and hold the COPY button, select the desired track (its LED will remain lit and

the others will turn off), then press RECORD.
