5 - Editing a Song
4 Listen to the Song.
After loading you are back to the main page of the Song
mode.
Press PLAY/STOP (SEQ1) to listen to the Song. The LED on
the button turns on.
Does it sound good? If it is a General MIDI-compatible mid-
ifile, there is a good chance it does. But we can further
improve on it.
5 Stop the Song.
This one is easy: press PLAY/STOP (SEQ1). The LED on the
PLAY/STOP button turns off.
Please, always remember: make any changes to the Song
when the sequencer is not playing. Otherwise, a Stop com-
mand will reset all your changes.
(Not funny, huh?)
6 Select different Programs.
You can replace General MIDI Programs with KORG Pro-
grams. It will sound more rich, more lively.
1. Press TRACK SELECT to see tracks 1-8. The LED turns
on.
You are watching at tracks 1-8. You can switch to tracks
9-16 by pressing the TRACK SELECT button again.
If you press TRACK SELECT again, you are back to the
main page. Press TRACK SELECT AGAIN to go to
tracks 1-8…
2. Select the track you wish to assign a different Program
using the VOLUME/VALUE buttons. Press one of the
buttons corresponding to the track to select. For exam-
ple, one of the A buttons to select track 1:
3. Select a Program. You should know how to do. If not,
what about going back for a little to the “Basic opera-
tions” chapter, “Selecting a Program” section, page 26?
It will be of a great help in the future…
Which Programs to choose? With >660 Programs, you
will for sure find your preferred sound. Just browse any
Program bank, and listen to them. Turn on the DIS-
PLAY HOLD LED, to stay in the Selecting Window until
you have found the right Program. (Then, press EXIT or
DISPLAY HOLD to exit the window.)
4. Execute as many changes as you like to the other tracks.
7 Change the volume.
Yes, this is another obvious change. Press MENU to open the
edit menu.
Press one of the A VOLUME/VALUE buttons, to select the
Mixer/Tuning item. Suddenly, a Volume edit page appears…
Select a track, and use the DIAL or the UP and DOWN but-
tons, or the VOLUME/VALUE buttons, to change the track’s
volume.
Modify all tracks you think need to be modified.
