Editing MIDI-Files
First, press one of the buttons ARTIST, TITLE or GENRE, and select the song
you want (= shaded in color). Then press the PLAY button to start the play-
back of that song.
Continue by pressing the EDIT button (during the playback). This opens the
window EDIT TRACKS. This window lists all the tracks of the song currently
playing; in addition, the tracks that are actively being played can be identi-
fied by means of a green (blinking) point.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Changes that are made have to be saved already DURING
the playback of the song!!! If a song‘s playback is over and you have not been
able to save your changes during the playback, they will all be irretrievably lost
(when you play back the song again, it will play with its original values).
To edit a track, use the DIAL or the UP/ DOWN buttons and select the track
that you want (= shaded in color). Proceed by pressing the ENTER button.
This opens the MODIFY TRACK window, which gives you access to the fol-
lowing parameters:
• Prog.Chg/Bank
for selecting a different sound (e.g. piano, strings, bass, ...).
• Status
this gives you the following options: Play = plays back the track; Mute =
mutes the track; Solo = track plays back in solo.
• Volume (0 to 127)
volume of the track
• Reverb (0 to 127)
reverberation effect ratio of the track
• Chorus (0 to 127)
chorus effect ratio of the track
• Insert
this parameter is directly linked to the WIZARD SOUND FUNCTION (= WSF)
see page 38
• Pan (-64=all the way left to 63=all the way right)
panorama setting of the track (the value 0 = middle)
• Transpose (-12 to +12)
transposing (key change) of the track in semitone steps
• Velocity
velocity setting of the track (available values: Norm, -3dB, Comp, Push, +3dB
and Max).
Use the UP/DOWN buttons to select the parameter (that you want to edit).
This shades the corresponding parameter in color. To change the value of
that parameter, you can use the DIAL knob.
As soon as you make changes, the SAVE button illuminates (this indicates
that the changes should be saved). If you want to keep the changes you
have made, press the SAVE button (-> button light turns off -> changes have
been saved).
If you decide to NOT save the changes you have made, simply press the
ESC button (-> EDIT TRACKS window opens -> SAVE button illuminates as
before). Press the ESC button once again, followed by the STOP button 2x
(playback stops and the main window is again on display). The message
„Save song settings?“ appears on the display. Press the ESC button one more
time to reject the changes permanently (-> SAVE button‘s light turns off).
