Beat Graph
• The beat graph is a useful guide for setting up the timing
for your recording.
• Each dash (–) on the graph represents a 32nd-note interval.
Eight consecutive dashes correspond to a quarter note, while
32 consecutive dashes correspond to a whole note.
• A
●
mark appears in the beat graph to indicate that at least
one note begins at that point.
• As an example, assume that you are recording in 4/4 time
and your first measure contains the following note pattern:
q
|
q
|
e xx
|
e e
. In this case, the beat graph will appear
as shown below.
• The beat graph cannot accurately indicate notes shorter than
a 32nd. You can check the status of these notes using SONG
EDIT mode (
→
p.130).
Location Pointer
• The location pointer is the small triangular mark that ap-
pears just above the beat graph. The pointer points down at
the current input location.
• If you move the location pointer so that it comes above one
of the note markings on the beat graph, the QY700 will
play out the corresponding note(s).
• When selected by the cursor, the pointer appears highlighted
on the screen. When the pointer is in this condition, you can
move it using the
l
or
r
key, the data dial, or the
n
or
y
key.
• Regardless of the cursor position, you can always move the
pointer using the shuttle dial or the
r
or
f
keys.
• When you enter a note, a rest, or a tie, the pointer automati-
cally advances by one step.
Piano Roll
• This graphical representation shows the pitch, timing, and
length (gate time) of each recorded note. The horizontal
gridlines represent pitch, the vertical gridlines correspond
to time, and the horizontal bars indicate individual notes.
• You can scroll the piano roll up or down an octave by press-
ing the
u
[OCT UP] or
d
[OCT DOWN] key.
• The piano roll automatically scrolls in the horizontal direc-
tion as you move the location pointer.
