Saving a list of Songs
Link Beat The two sequencers Tempo are linked together.
The Tempo data written into the Songs are
ignored. Adjust the Tempo using the TEMPO/
VALUE controls.
Start one of the sequencers, by pressing its own
PLAY/STOP control. Then, start the other
sequencer, by pressing the other PLAY/STOP
control; the second sequencer starts at the next
beat (quarter or octave, depending on the
Song’s Time Signature).
S2 FX Mode
This parameter selects the effects mode for Sequencer 2.
When a 4-effects Song is loaded, all four effects are used,
independently from this setting.
AB The A and B effect pair is used. Sequencer 2
shares its effects with Sequencer 1.
CD The C and D effect pair is used.
Note: When this parameter is set to CD,
Sequencer 2 shares its effects with the Realtime
(Keyboard) tracks, so these effects can be changed
either selecting a Song for Sequencer 2, or select-
ing a Performance (unless the “Performance FX
Mode” parameter is set to Off – see below).
Performance FX Mode
This parameter selects the effects mode for the Performance.
Off When selecting a Performance, no effect is
selected.
CD The Performance selects the C and D effect
pair.
Note: When both this parameter and the “S2 FX
Mode” parameter are set to CD, Sequencer 2
shares its effects with the Realtime (Keyboard)
tracks, so these effects can be changed either
selecting a Song for Sequencer 2, or selecting a
Performance.
SAVING A LIST OF SONGS
How to save a list of Songs contained in a
folder
1. Press SONG PLAY to select the Song Play operative
mode.
2. Press one of the A (S1:) VOLUME/VALUE button to
select the Load Song page.
3. Use the F3 (Open) and F4 (Close) buttons to browse
through the folders inside the card.
4. Move the folder you are looking for to the first line of
the display. Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls, or the E-F
(Scroll Up) and G-H (Scroll Down) VOLUME/VALUE
buttons.
5. Once the folder is selected, press SHIFT + F2.
6. A dialog box will appear, asking you to insert a new card
into the card drive. Insert the card, and press ENTER to
confirm, or EXIT to abort.
Note: The text file will contain a list of “*.mid”, “*.kar” and
“*.jbx” files only (i.e., the files you can select using the numeric
keypad – see “Selecting a Song composing its progressive num-
ber” on page 70). Folders and different kinds of files will not be
included.
When saved, the text file will be named after the selected folder.
For example, a folder named “Dummy” will generate a
“Dummy.txt” file. If a file with the same name already exists on
the card, it will be overwritten without waiting for any confir-
mation. A file containing the list of all valid files contained into
the root of the card will generate a “Root.txt” file.
The list will include the progressive number assigned to each
Song, file names in MS-DOS format (8.3), the total number of
files in the list.
For the correct display and printing of the list on a personal
computer, use a fixed size (i.e., non-proportional) character in
your text editor.
Warning: While the list may contain more than 9999 files, you
can’t select Songs outside the 0001-9999 range when using the
numeric keypad.
