G-70 Music Workstation
The advantage of these markers is that you can
return to the chorus, for example, if you notice that
the audience wants the song to last a little longer
than originally planned. Markers also allow you to
change the song structure in realtime (by starting
with the bridge, for example).
Note: If you press a MARK & JUMP button almost immediately
after starting song playback, the Recorder may suddenly stop
and the message “Song Scanning” may appear. This can be
solved by reducing the playback tempo so that the G-70 has
enough time to process all MIDI data contained in the song.
■Reset, rewind, fast-forward
You can also use the following buttons to jump to
different song locations.
[TOP¥|√] TOP: allows you to return to the beginning of
the current song.
[º] BWD: allows you to rewind one measure at a
time. You can also press and hold this button to
rewind more rapidly.
[‰] FWD: allows you to fast-forward one measure at
a time. You can also press and hold this button to
advance more rapidly.
These buttons are available both during playback and
while playback is stopped.
■Next Song
While the current song is still running, you can
already select the next one to be played back. If you
want it to start automatically, proceed as follows:
• Press the [NEXT≈SONG] button.
• Select the desired song using the Song Finder
(page 38).
• As soon as the current song finishes, the next one
starts automatically. There is thus no need to press
[PLAY÷STOP¥®÷ª] again. You could now select
another song.
• Press the [NEXT≈SONG] button again to switch off
this function.
Note: Your G-70 also provides a PLAY LIST function for pro-
gramming sequences of several songs (page 145).
■Player (Data Update and Quick Start)
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
The display changes to:
(2) Press the [UTILITY], then the [GLOBAL] field.
(3) Use the button icon next to the [BWD÷FWD÷JUMP]
field to specify whether (on) or not (off) SysEx
messages contained in the song you play back are
updated while you fast-forward/rewind or use the
MARK JUMP buttons.
(4) Press the [SONG¥PLAY¥QUICK¥START] field and use
the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial to specify where and how
song playback should begin:
● FROM SECOND BAR—This function causes playback to
start from measure 2 of the selected Standard MIDI File.
This is often useful, because the first bar of most Stan-
dard MIDI Files contain SysEx and control change data
that “configure” the G-70’s sound source. Playing back
that measure on stage may lead to a rather long blank,
which you probably want to avoid.
● FROM FIRST NOTE—This is basically the same as the
above, except that playback is started on the first note of
the selected song.
● OFF—Playback start at the very beginning of the song
file (and may thus contain a few silent bars).
