Recording data to the Master track
The Master track of a song typically con-
tains settings that apply to an instrument
(organ, synthesizer, module) as a whole,
such as effects settings (type, level), tuning,
general volume, etc. Such settings are usu-
ally only meaningful to one specific model,
and are therefore not standardized (each
manufacturer uses a different system, some-
times even various systems among different
instrument categories). Hence the name
“system exclusive”, or “SysEx” for short.
Again, you don’t need to know how such
messages are structured, or how they work.
We cannot guarantee that your instrument
translates all parameter values into SysEx
messages that are transmitted in realtime
(i.e. while you are changing them), but it
may be worth trying.
The Stop Map data of Rodgers organs are transmit-
ted as SysEx data, which is why they are recorded
onto the Master track. That explains why the Mas-
ter track is also activated when you record in
“
Org
” mode – and why recording to the Master
track in isolation may actually erase setting data
you may want to keep. So please be careful.
