Chapter 6 Creating and Editing Songs
Chapter 6
■ Modifying the Settings of Each Part
You can change the Tones and volume, as well as mute the
playback, for each individual part in songs recorded with the
16-track Sequencer and the internal songs.
→ Because commercially available Roland SMF music files are
also made up of 16 Parts, you can change the settings for the
individual Parts and play them back in the same way.
First, select the song for which the settings are to be made
(p. 65).
1. Display the 16-track Sequencer screen (p. 113).
2. Touch the screen to choose the Part for which you want
to make settings.
Change the settings for the selected Part.
* When you touch <Clear>, a message asking you to confirm the
deletion appears. To erase the recorded sound, touch <OK>. If
you don’t want to erase the recorded sound, touch <Cancel>.
Once a performance has been erased, it can’t be restored.
3. Touch <Options> to make more detailed settings for
the selected part.
A screen like the one shown below appears.

You can change the Tone for the selected Part by
pressing a Tone button while this screen is displayed.
When selecting Part 10 or 11, you can touch <Drum Set>
to select the drum set or effect sound.
The Part name and tone name are displayed at the top of
the screen.
4. Touch for the corresponding item to change
the setting.
You can also change the values by touching each
parameter slider and then using the [-] [+] buttons and
the dial.
When you press the [ (Play/Stop)] button, you
hear what the song sounds like as you change the
settings. When you press the [ (Play/Stop)]
button, playback of the song stops.
5. Touch to make settings for other parts.
The Part name appears at the upper part of the screen.
Change the settings for other parts as needed.
6. Hold down the [ (Rec)] button and press the [
(Reset)] button.
This operation set the changes in the settings.
The song can then be saved to a floppy disk or to user
memory.
If you do not want to delete a song after changing the
settings for the individual parts, save the song to a
floppy disk or to user memory (p. 101).
* You cannot save the settings that determine whether sounds
for each individual part are played or not (solo and mute).
