You can only insert an intro
at the beginning of a song.
When you add an intro, the
number of bars
corresponding to the length
of the intro is inserted
automatically.
If you assign the function
to a pedal, you can insert a
break in the middle of a
song. See “Assigning
Functions to Pedals” (p.
147).
Pressing the [To Variation]
b
utton or the [To Original]
b
utton adds a fill-in at the
cursor position and a
Variation or Original
Division at the measure
after the fill-in. If you want
to enter a Variation or
Original Division without
inserting a fill-in, you need
to assign the function to the
pedal. See “Assigning
Functions to Pedals” (p.
147).
The song you’ve created
disappears when you turn
off the power. If you don’t
want to lose it, you should
save it on a floppy disk.
Take a look at “Saving
Songs to Floppy Disks” (p.
109).
