By scrolling
through
the
list, any sslscted data can be
copied
lrom
one track or
part
to
another. For example, if a track contained
notes
on
many MlDl channsls that had
been
prsviously
combined together, copying only one MlDl channei to
a new lrack would allow
the
parts
to be separated out again. Also, copying NOTES ONLY
Jrom a track to itself will
etfectivoly erass all
pitchbend,
controller,
program
change,
after touch, and system
exclusive data
trom that track.
Copylng a SONG to ltselt
ln SONG mode,
pressing
and holding the COPY button will result in the lollowing display:

The 01 display will actually showlh6
currently selected song number. Like in PART mode,
pressing

Copylng a SONG
to anolher SONG
lf a new song number is
selected, lhe display will show the newly selecled

number,
and
pressing
RECORD
will append lhe sourcs
song
number
(the
number selected before
pressing
COPY), to ths dsstination
song number
(lhe

since a verso consisting of
more than one
part
could be
entersd into a song,
and then appended into anolhsr
song when needed without having
to re
-enter
lhe
parts
lor the verss. None of
the eight track buttons will have any effect
when
copying songs. The

and will b6 abortsd if COPY

no effecl while a song or

mode, and the list
of
parts
in a song can be edited
in song mods. To exil EDIT mode,
prsss
EDIT again
(the

or SONG, which automatically turns EDIT
off.

PART
When

while in PART mode
(PART

(only
