Chapter 8 Creating and Editing Songs
Chapter 8
Modifying the Tone Changes in
a Song (PC Edit)
In some songs, the instrument sound changes during the
course of the song (that is, the Tone changes in the middle of
a Part). In such songs, an instruction to switch the Tone is
inserted at the place where you want the sound to change.
This instruction is called a “Program Change” (PC), and
actions such as deleting program changes, or changing the
selected Tone by them are called “PC editing.”
* It is not possible to insert a program change into a measure or
beat that does not contain a program change.
At Step 3 of “Selecting the Editing Function” (p. 145), select
<PC Edit>.
A screen like the one shown below appears.
fig.d-e-pc.eps_50
The PC-location display uses “Measure: Beat: Tick” as the
format. A tick is a unit of time that’s shorter than a beat.
Touch to select the part with the program
change to be edited.
The Part number appears at the top of the screen.
Use the [ (Bwd)] button and the [ (Fwd)] button or
use < > < > on the screen to find the program change to
be edited.
When you’ve found the Program Change you want to
modify, touch “Tone Name” on the screen.
Press a Tone button to select a Tone group, then select a Tone
with the dial. When selecting Part 10 or 11, select the drum
set or effect sound.
If you want to delete the Program Change, touch <Delete>.
When you’re done making all the settings, press the [Exit]
button.
Changing the Beat in the Middle
of a Song (Beat Map)
You can create songs that have beat changes during the
course of the song.
* You can’t change a song’s beat once it’s been recorded. Before
recording the performance, determine the beat to be used.

deletion appears.

and [ (Fwd)] buttons to move to the measure
