Recording and playing exclusive
events
Version 2.0 allows exclusive messages to be recorded and
played back, and allows you to edit tracks that contain
exclusive events.
Exclusive messages (including XG or GS data) received from
an external MIDI device, and parameter changes produced
by editing track parameters (☞p.35) can now be recorded in
realtime on the desired track. You can also use the page
menu command “Put Effect Setting to Track” to place insert
effect or master effect parameter settings as exclusive events
in the desired location of a track.
Recorded GM, XG, or GS exclusive messages do not
affect the TRITON STUDIO when they are played back.
Since the recorded data is embedded in the song data as
exclusive events, it can be saved or loaded to/from disk in
the same way as before. Exclusive messages can also be
saved and loaded as SMF (Standard MIDI File) data (“Load
Standard MIDI File,” “Save Song as Standard MIDI File”).
This means that you can save recorded exclusive events as
SMF data, or convert exclusive messages from an SMF file
into song data.
During playback, this data can be transmitted to an external
MIDI device, or can be used to control song track parame-
ters or effect parameters.
1. Recording internal parameter changes
As an example, here’s how to record internal parameter
changes using the preset template song “Acid Jazz.”
In this example, we’ll use an empty track to record parame-
ter changes for the insert effects (IFX1, IFX2) assigned to
track 1 (drums).
1 Use the page menu command “Load Template Song” to
load Acid Jazz. In the dialog box, check “Copy Pattern to
Track too?”, and create a song of about 16 measures.
(☞BG p.49 “Creating the basic song – 1. Loading a tem-
plate song and copying preset patterns (drum phrases)”)
2 Move to Global mode, and in Global P1: MIDI, MIDI Fil-
ter, check the “Enable Exclusive” check box.
3 Move to Sequencer mode, use “Track Select” to select
Track 09, and begin recording.
For this example, select an empty track.
If you want to record onto a track that already contains
data, set the “Recording Setup” parameter “Recording
Mode” to Over Dub (☞PG p.57).
4 During recording, use the Sequencer P8: Insert Effect,
Insert FX page to edit the parameters of IFX1 and IFX2 at
the appropriate time.
5 Stop recording.
Exclusive messages are always recorded on the current
track selected by “Track Select.” In this example, they
are recorded on track 9.
6 In the Sequencer P5: Track Edit page, select the page
menu command “Event Edit.” In the Set Event Filters
dialog box, check Exclusive and then press the OK but-
ton.
The event edit screen will show the recorded exclusive
events and their locations.
Exclusive events are displayed as “EXCL.”
Exclusive events cannot be changed to a different type
of event. Nor can other events be changed into exclu-
sive events.
7 When you access the Sequencer P8: Insert Effect screen
and play back, the changes you made will be reproduced.
