This job sorts chord events (simultaneous note events) by
order of pitch. The sort affects the order of the notes in the
Event List display (page 151), but does not change the
timing of the notes. When used to pre-process chords
before using the Separate Chord Job (below), Chord Sort
can be used to simulate the “stroke” or strumming sound of
guitars and similar instruments.
1
Track and range
Determines the Song track (01 – 16, all) and range
(Measure : Beat : Clock) over which the Job is applied.
2
Type
Determines how the chord note data is sorted.
Settings:
up, down, up&down, down&up
up
The notes are sorted in ascending order. After executing this Job with
this setting, execute the Separate Chord Job to create a guitar-like
upstroke strum.
down
The notes are sorted in descending order. After executing this Job with
this setting, execute the Separate Chord Job to create a guitar-like
downstroke strum.
up&down
Sorts chord notes on downbeats in ascending order and chord notes
on up beats in descending order, based on the Grid setting, below.
After executing this Job with this setting, execute the Separate Chord
Job to create a guitar-like upstroke and downstroke strum.
down&up
Sorts chord notes on downbeats in descending order and chord notes
on up beats in ascending order. After executing this Job with this
setting, execute the Separate Chord Job to create a guitar-like
upstroke and downstroke strum.

You can call up the list and select the desired item by pressing
the [SF6] LIST button. For details, see page 37.
This Job slightly separates notes in chords within the
specified range, inserting a specified number of clocks
between each note. Use this Job after the Chord Sort Job
above, to create guitar-like upstroke or downstroke effects.
1
Track and range
Determines the Song track (01 – 16, all) and range
(Measure : Beat : Clock) over which the Job is applied.
2
Clock
Determines the number of clock cycles inserted between
adjacent chord notes. Depending on the setting here, the
note event may overstep the next note or the range (set
above). If such a situation occurs, the overstepping note
events are moved to the point (clock) before the next note
or within the range when executing the Job.
Settings:
000 – 999
[F3] Event Jobs
This Job shifts all data events in the specified range
forward or backward by the specified number of clocks.
