The display now changes to:
5. Press the [Edit] field.
This is only possible while Song (or Arranger) play-
back is stopped. So be sure to stop playback before
pressing [Edit]. Otherwise a “CAN’T EXECUTE”
error message is displayed.
Now, we’re going to import the text file you created
earlier:
6. Insert the Zip or floppy disk that contains the text
file you wish to associate with the Standard MIDI File
in the VA-76’s Song RAM memory.
7.
Press the [TXT Import] field.
8.
Press the [FLOPPY] or [ZIP] field to indicate which
drive contains the data with the text file to be
imported.
9. If necessary, press the [Import] field.
10. Press the field that contains the name of the
desired file.
If you don’t see the desired file name, use [
o
][
k
] to
select another group of 8 files. (If you still can’t find
the desired file, it may not end in “.txt” or not be a
text/ASCII file.)
11.
Press the [EXECUTE] field to load the desired text
file.
12. Press [
o
Back] to return to the Edit Lyrics page
(see above).
Now you’re all set for the synchronization work:
13. Press the [Lyrics Synchro] field.
This display page should contain the first line of the
text you imported. (This function can also be used to
correct the synchronization of Lyrics data contained in
a Tune 1000-format SMF you loaded.)
If you like, you can now use the [PLAY ® ],
[STOP

], [

BWD], and [FFW

] fields to
playback and navigate inside your song.
Here’s what we’re going to do: every line of the text we
imported can be associated with a given quarter note
of the song. We’ll do this while the song is playing
back, because that is faster and also more musical.
Synchronizing text lines is a matter of pressing the
[DATA] button on the beats where they should appear
during normal playback of the Standard MIDI File.
Every press of the [DATA] button will associate the
text line below the arrows (
® √
) with the quarter
note where the button was pressed. The preceding line
automatically scrolls above the (
® √
) section, while
the following line will appear below the arrows.
14. Press [STOP

place where the first line should be displayed during
normal operation.

16.
Press the [PLAY ® ] field.
Playback (and Lyric synchronization recording) start.
17. On the beat where the first text line should be dis-
played, press the [DATA] button (front panel).
