[SF3] Song (Convert to Song)
Converts the current Pattern chain to MIDI sequence data
and copies the data to a specified Song. This function is
useful for quickly creating backing and accompaniment
parts for Song data.
1
Destination Song
Determines the destination Song by specifying the number
(01 – 64). The name of the selected Song is displayed.
2
Destination Location (Top Measure)
Determines the beginning measure number of the
destination.
Settings:
001 – 999
3
Without Program Change
When this box is checkmarked, the settings of the Mixing
and Tempo are copied to the destination Song (
1
). The
Tempo value is copied to the top measure (
2
) of the
destination Song. When the checkmark is removed, the
Voice settings in each Phrase are also copied to the top
measure (
2
) of the destination Song as Program Change
events.
NOTICE
This Job operation overwrites any data previously existing in the
destination Song and the Undo/Redo (page 182) Job cannot be
used after executing this Job. Important data should always be
saved to a USB storage device connected to the USB TO DEVICE
terminal or to a computer connected to the same network as the
MOTIF XF (page 241).
