Monitoring note events
The Style Composer can play back the note events
you select. This may help you identify the occurrence
you want to edit. Switch on the speaker icon ( ) and
move the cursor to a note event to hear that note.
VIEW
Press this button icon if the list of track events has
become so long that finding the events you wish to
edit takes too long. The following pop-up appears:
Switch on the button icons of events you want to see
in the list (the button icons in question must light).
The names of most available options are probably
clear to you, so we won’t explain them. Just one note:
[PROGRAM¥CHANGE] also includes the bank select
messages (CC00 and CC32) that are used for selecting
sounds. See page 172 for the [ALTERATION¥MODE]
message.
Press [ALL] to switch on all button icons or [NONE] to
switch them all off, in which case the STYLE MICRO
EDIT list only contains the “End of Data” message.
Press [CLOSE] to close the pop-up window without
applying your changes.
General procedure
To change information already available on the
selected track, proceed as follows:
(1) Set TRACK, MODE and DIVISION by pressing the
corresponding fields and using the [DATA÷ENTRY]
dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.
(2) Press the white field (the event list) to be able to
select events using the DATA ENTRY section.
(3) Use the [ß][†] buttons or the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial to
select the list entry you want to edit.
The name of the selected parameter appears in the
upper right-hand corner of the display.
(4) Press the DATA ENTRY [®] button to select the
(first) 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 the numeric button icons to enter the desired
value. (Use [Delete] to delete the last figure you
entered.)
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-
out changing the value.

value and change it.
(7) When you’re done, press the [Back] field to return
to the STYLE COMPOSER page, then save your
Style.
The parameters you can change are:
Note and velocity messages—These messages always
come in pairs. The first value (“Note Number 127 G9”)
refers to the note itself and the second (“On Velocity
127”) to the velocity (playing dynamics).
The MICRO EDIT page adds a third message to that pair.
It describes the duration of the note in question. You
may remember this value from the TRACK EDIT environ-
ment, where it is called “Gate Time”.
Control Change—These messages usually add some-
thing to the notes being played, like modulation, a dif-
ferent volume, a new stereo position… The E-60/E-50
recognizes (and allows you to edit) all control change
numbers the Arranger uses (CC01, 10, 11, 91, 93) and
displays their “official” name.
