INSERT allows you to insert space and shift data that
lie behind the FROM position further towards the end
of the track (this is the exact opposite of DELETE). The
empty measures you create can be “filled” using the
COPY function or by recording new phrases in that
area.
Note: This function provides no TO pointer. Instead, you have
to specify the length of the insert using the FOR values.
TRACK (ADrums~Acc6, ALL)
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.
MODE
Allows you to select the Mode to be edited: “Major”,
“minor” or “7th”.
DIVISION
Use this parameter to select the Division you want to edit:
Intro 1~4, Main 1~4, Fill Dwn 1~3, Fill Up 1~3, End 1~4.
FROM
BAR (1~[last measure of the track or pattern])—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 selectable beats depends
on the selected time signature.
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.
FOR
Specifies how many bars, beats and CPTs are to be inserted.
BAR, BEAT, CPT—See above.
EXECUTE
Press this field to confirm your settings and insert the
requested number of bars, beats and clocks.
This function allows you to transpose the notes of
the selected track (non-note data obviously cannot
be transposed).
TRACK (ADrums~Acc6, ALL)
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.
When combined with “FROM NOTE” and “TO NOTE” (see
below), TRANSPOSE is also useful for the AccDrums track. It
allows you to select another snare or kick sound, for exam-
ple.
MODE
Allows you to select the Mode to be edited: “Major”,
“minor” or “7th”.
DIVISION
Use this parameter to select the Division you want to edit:
Intro 1~4, Main 1~4, Fill Dwn 1~3, Fill Up 1~3, End 1~4.
VALUE (–127~127)
This is where you can set the transposition interval in semi-
tone steps. Select “2”, for example, to transpose pattern in
“C” to “D”.
Note: Be careful when applying Transpose to the AccDrums
track. Transposing all notes of this track leads to dramatic
changes.
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.
It is not displayed when you select EQUAL, UNEQUAL,
HIGHER or LOWER. See also “Fine-tuning the note range”
on p. 214.
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.
EXECUTE
Press this field to confirm your settings and edit the data.
