Erase
“Erase” allows you to selectively delete data either
within a specified range of measures, beats or clocks
or from the entire track(s). When “Data Type” is set to
“All”, “Erase” substitutes the required number of rests
for the data you delete, so that you end up with the
equivalent number of blank measures. If you also
want to eliminate the measures themselves, use
“Delete” (see below).
To Beat 1~[number of
beats per bar] Specifies the beat posi-
tion. The number of
selectable beats
depends on the
selected time signa-
ture.
To CPT 0~119 Refers to the last clock
that should be affected
by the edit operation.
Change this setting
only if your edit opera-
tion should not end
exactly on the selected
beat.
Resolution 1/4, 1/8, 1/8T,
1/16, 1/16T, 1/
32, 1/32T, 1/64 This parameter sets the
resolution of the
Quantize function. Be
sure to always select
the value of the short-
est note you recorded.
Otherwise, your part
no longer sounds the
way you played it,
because shorter notes
are shifted to the
wrong positions.
Strength 0%~100% Use this parameter to
specify how precise the
timing correction
should be. “0%” means
that the selected “Res-
olution” value is not
applied (“0% correc-
tion”), while “100%”
means that all notes
are shifted to the
mathematically correct
positions.
From Note 0 C-~127 G9 This parameter allows
you to set the note (or
lower limit of the note
range) to be modified
within the specified
“From/To” time range.
To Note 0 C-~127 G9 This parameter allows
you to set the upper
limit of the note range
to be modified within
the specified “From/To”
time range.

From Bar 1~[last mea-
sure of the
track or pat-

sure to be edited. By
default, the “From”
value is set to the
beginning of the
selected track(s).
From Beat 1~[number of
beats per bar] Specifies the beat posi-
tion. The number of
selectable beats
depends on the
selected time signa-
ture.
From CPT 0~119 Refers to the starting
CPT position. “CPT” is
short for “Clock Pulse
Time”, the smallest unit
used by the BK-5.
(There are 120 CPTs to
every beat of a 4/4
bar.) Change this set-
ting only if your edit
operation should start
after the selected beat.
