Whatever the status of the Arranger (running or stopped), access can be gained to the loading of TXT files at any time:
●
Press the
DISK
push button.
●
Choose between Floppy Disk or Hard Disk using the
PAGE +/-
push buttons.
●
If you choose Hard Disk you must find the Folder bearing the TXT files.
●
Once you have found the .TXT file to be loaded using the
VALUE +/-
push buttons, enable RAM loading using
F2 Load
.
●
The words are displayed in the bottom of the display. When a number of pages are present, the next pages are scrolled using the
PAGE +/-
push buttons or the optional pedals FS6 or FS13.
●
Press the
PAGE +/-
push buttons together to display the first page of the words and press them again to go to the last page of the words.
Press them a third time to return to the words page displayed initially.
●
To disable the display, press the
EXIT
push button which, if pressed again, displays the words once more.
The display of the words in the Arranger mode can be disabled using function push button
F7 Text
, set in
Off
, in the
F3 Utility
menu that is
accessed from the main page of the display.
To automate the loading procedure of a .TXT file you can use a Registration keeping in mind two conditions:
The Single Registration must have the same name as the .TXT file to be loaded.
The .TXT file and that of the Single Registration must be stored within the same Folder (if using the HD) or same floppy disk.
If you record the settings of the Arranger, including the Style, in a Registration with the same name as the .TXT file to be loaded; when you call
up the Registration, the .TXT file will also be automatically loaded. The loading speed is obviously longer when the .TXT file is read from the flop-
py disk rather than the hard disk
USING .TXT FILES WITH SONG PLAY
Compared to the Arranger it is not possible to first load a Midi file and then the .TXT file to be displayed. The method to automate the whole
process is that of giving the Midi file and it's associated .TXT file the same name so that, when loading the Midi file, the .TXT file is automatical-
ly found and loaded too. In
Song Play
as well, the display of the .TXT file is controlled by the
EXIT
push button. The same conditions mentioned
above apply here too:
●
The Midi file must have the same name as the .TXT to be loaded.
●
The .TXT file and the Midi file must be stored in the same Folder (if on HD) or floppy disk.
To automatically call up the Midi file and the .TXT file set with the above mentioned conditions use the controls already described in
Song Play
(see specific section). To scroll any pages that follow, the words must be displayed and then use the
PAGE +/-
push buttons. Press the
PAGE +/-
push buttons together to display the first page of the words, press again to go to the last page of words and press a third time to return to the
page displayed initially.
SYNCHRONIZING THE CHANGES TO THE LYRICS/TEXT PAGE WITH A MIDI FILE
The VEGA can record the page change of the .TXT file displayed at any stage of a Midi file. By writing a text with black lines, you can achieve
results very close to Karaoke, obviously with some graphic restrictions. The synchronization procedure is always enabled when reproducing the
Midi file and there are no direct functions or controls to call it up. To achieve this however;
●
Load the Midi file and the .TXT file in
Song Play
.
●
Enable the Midi file playback mode using
START
.
●
When you wish to call up the next page press the
PAGE +
push button (just as you would performing live).
●
Repeat the procedure for the following pages until the entire song is completed.
●
Press
SAVE/ENTER
to record the synchronized page change.
●
Confirm the registration using
F10 Save
, or cancel the procedure using
F5 Escape
.
●
The VEGA associates the page changes with the beats and the measures in which the page change occurred using some special codes within
the .TXT file. The Midi file itself is not modified in any way whatsoever. Therefore to return to the original .TXT file use the
F4 Clear
function
and this will cancels these codes from the .TXT file.
