To edit the chord progression

On the editing operation selection screen
(page E-27), select “CHORD” and then press
the
dp
(ENTER)
button to display the chord
progression editing screen shown below.
(1) Step (timing and chord)
The timing of a chord progression is expressed as a
series of three values separated by colons (such as
001:1:00) indicating measure
*1
(001), beat (1), and
tick (00)
*2
. This series of three values is referred to
collectively as a “step”.
The screen shot above shows the first two steps
(001, 002) of the Music Preset. Use the
bp
(REW)
and
bq
(FF)
buttons to scroll and view other steps.
*1
Up to 999 measures
*2
There are 12 ticks per beat, as shown below.
(2) Cursor
Specifies the step that is currently selected for
editing.
(3) Resolution
Resolution is a unit used when editing step timing.
The initial resolution is R1 (one measure), but you
also can select R4 (1 beat = 1 quarter note) when you
want to specify chords for each beat. Use the
instrument part buttons (
5
through
bm
) to select
one of the eight resolutions shown below.
