To change information already available on the MAS-
TER track, proceed as follows:

select the list entry you want to edit.
The name of the selected parameter appears in the
upper right-hand corner of the display:
(2) Press the DATA ENTRY [®] button to select the
(first) value.
(3) Modify the value:
• Rotate the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial. —or—
• Set the value using the [DEC]/[INC] buttons. —or—
• Press the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial and enter the value
using the numeric pad that appears in the display.
If you choose to work with the numeric pad, proceed
as follows:
• Press [Delete] to clear the currently selected figure
(e.g. the “7” of “127”).
• Press the [+10%] or [–10%] field to increase or
decrease the current value by 10%.
• Press [ENTER] to confirm the value.
—or—
Press [CLOSE] to close the numeric pad window with-

The parameters you can change are:
■Tempo Change (BPM)
(20~250) Specifies the song tempo. If necessary, you
can insert tempo changes anywhere within the song.
This could even be done in real time (using the
TEMPO REC SW parameter). See page 126.
■Beat Change (Numerator/Denominator)
(Numerator: 1~32/Denominator: 2, 4, 8, 16) Specifies
the song’s time signature. If necessary, you can insert
time signature changes anywhere within the song.
After pressing [®] for the first time, you can specify
the numerator (the number of beats per bar). Press it
again to specify the denominator (the note value of
each beat).
To avoid unpleasant surprises, be sure to save your
song before editing the MASTER track.
Editing existing events
Tempo: This is the “Tempo Change” value located
at 1-01-000. It cannot be erased.
Time signature: This is the “Beat Change” value located at
1-01-000. It cannot be erased.
SysEx: The “SysEx” string located close to the
beginning of the song. It tells the sound
source what format is being used, how
the effects processors should be set
(types, parameter settings), etc.
Song length: The “End of Data” value refers to the posi-
tion of the last event (which can be
located on any track) and thus to the end
of the song. This value cannot be edited
manually. You can, however, extend the
song by recording additional data or by
inserting blank measures (page 134).
