The locator’s format is as follows:

Beat: Divider in the Time Signature ratio (e.g., a quarter in a
3/4 time).
Tick: Minimal sequencer’s resolution. The Pa80 internal
sequencers feature a resolution of 384 ticks per quarter.

beginning of the measure, like a Time Signa-

using the buttons of the STYLE section.
Note: Any Style Change inserted after the beginning of the mea-
sure (i.e., to a position other than Mxxx.01.000) will be effective
at the following measure. For example, if a Style Change event
has been inserted at M004.03.000, the selected Style will be
effectively selected at M005.01.000. (This works exactly as in
Style Play mode).
Note: When inserting a Style Change, you may also insert a
