(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
(REW) and
(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 = 4 quarter notes) when
you want to specify chords for each beat. Use the
instrument part buttons (
through
) to select
one of the eight resolutions shown below.

3-1.Select a chord fingering mode and use the
chord keyboard (page E-18) to input chords.
Fingering a chord causes the cursor (2) to
move to the next step automatically.
• If you want to advance to the next step
without changing the current chord, press
the
(PAUSE) button.
• If (3) Resolution is shorter than the time up
to the next step, a new step (without chord)
that is equal to the time of the resolution
will be inserted temporarily into the Music
Preset. Fingering a chord for the new step
will cause the step to be registered as part
of the Music Preset, and the cursor will
advance to the next step.* You can use this
operation to insert a new step between the
current and following step.
* Using the
(REW) and
(FF) buttons to
move the cursor without inputting a chord
will delete the temporarily inserted step.
3-2.Use the
(w, q) buttons to change the
step timing (measure:beat:tick).
Each press of either button changing the
timing in accordance with the resolution.
• The range of values you can specify for the
step timing is limited by the steps before
and after the current step.
• The timing of the first step (001:1:00) is
fixed and cannot be changed. Also, the final
step is always one measure, regardless of
the resolution.
3-3.To delete a step, press both of the
(w and
q) buttons at the same time.
• You cannot delete the first step or the last
step.
