Using the 16-track Sequencer

r
E-80 Music Workstation
EDIT level does not provide the function you need or if
you want to see the notes, MIDI messages, etc., choose
the MICRO EDIT environment.
Here is how to select functions:
(1) Load the song you wish to edit (if it does not yet
reside in the E-80’s Song RAM memory).
See p. 41.
(2) Press the RECORDER [16-TRK¥SEQ.] button.
(3) Save your song before continuing by pressing the
[SAVE] field.
That way, you can always return to the original if
your changes do not work out as expected. See “Sav-
ing your song” on p. 63 for details. On the SAVE
SONG page, press the [Back] field to return to the
16-track Sequencer’s main page.
(4) Press the [TRACK¥EDIT] field in the right column of
the display.
(5) Press a field in the top two rows to select the
desired TRACK EDIT function.
If, after selecting one of these functions and setting
parameter values, you decide not to execute the
transformation, do not press the [EXECUTE] field.
(6) Select the track(s) you wish to modify.
(7) Select the range (“FROM” and “TO”) for the edit
operation.
The FROM and TO parameters allow you to specify
the positions (measure/beat/clock) of the track
excerpt you want to change.
Example: to change measures 1~4 of the selected
track, enter the following values:
(8) Specify what you want to change and how it
should change: press one of the parameter fields
(to the right of the FROM/TO section) and use the
[DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.
(9) Confirm the operation by pressing the [EXECUTE]
field.
(10) Press the [Back] field to return to the 16-track
Sequencer’s main page.
(11) Save your song.
Use this function if you chose not to quantize your
music during recording (page 176) and now realize
that the timing is not quite what you expected it to
be. Quantizing after recording has the advantage
that you can first listen to the original and then cor-
rect only those notes whose timing is definitely off.
■TRACK (ALL, 1~16)
Allows you to select the track you wish to edit. You can
also select “ALL” here, in which case the operation applies
to all tracks.
■FROM
● BAR (1~[last measure of the track or song])—Refers to
the first measure to be edited. By default, the FROM
value is set to the beginning of the selected track(s).
● BEAT (1~[number of beats per bar])—Specifies the
beat position. The number of available beats depends on
the time signature in the selected area.
● CPT (1~119)—Refers to the starting CPT position. “CPT”
is short for “Clock Pulse Time”, the smallest unit used by
the E-80. (There are 120 CPTs to every beat of a 4/4 bar.)
Change this setting only if your edit operation should
start after the selected beat.
■TO
By default, the TO position is set to the last event of the
selected track (or the last event of the longest track when
you select “ALL”).
● BAR (1~[last measure of the track or song])—This is
where you specify the bar position of the last measure to
be edited.
● BEAT (1~[number of beats per bar])—Specifies the
beat position. The number of available beats depends on
the time signature in the selected area.
● CPT (1~119)—Refers to the last clock that should be
affected by the edit operation. Change this setting only
if your edit operation should not end exactly on the
selected beat.
■FROM NOTE (0 C-~127 G9)
This parameter allows you to set the note (or lower limit of
the note range) to be modified within the specified FROM/
TO time range.
This parameter is not displayed when you select EQUAL,
UNEQUAL, HIGHER or LOWER.
■TO NOTE (0 C-~127 G9)
This parameter allows you to set the upper limit of the note
range to be modified within the specified FROM/TO time
range.
FROM: BAR= 0001
BEAT= 01
CPT= 000
TO: BAR= 0005
BEAT= 01
CPT= 000
