Touring your DisCover 5

r
Such changes occur at the end of the current
measure, which makes more musical sense than
jumping when you’re halfway into a measure.
The labels (VERSE, CHORUS, BRIDGE, ENDING)
refer to the locations you jump to by pressing
the corresponding button. Obviously, these
labels may be meaningless for markers you pro-
grammed or edited yourself.
There are four such MARK memories.
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 real-
time (by starting with the bridge, for example).
Note: These buttons may also come in handy for the
songs of the [Rhythm] index. See page 70.

Reset, rewind, fast-forward
You can also use the following buttons to jump
to different song locations.
[|√] TOP: Allows you to return to the beginning
of the current song.
[º] BWD: allows you to rewind one measure at
a time.
[‰] FWD: allows you to fast-forward one mea-
sure at a time.
These buttons are available both during play-
back 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:
• Press the [NEXT≈SONG] button.
• Select the desired song using the Song Finder
(page 16).
• As soon as the current song finishes, the next
one starts. You can now select another song.
• Press the [NEXT≈SONG] button again to switch
off this function.
Note: Your DisCover 5 also provides a Chain function
for programming play lists of several songs (page 76).

Player (GS Reset Send and Quick Start)
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
The display changes to:
(2) Press the [UTILITY] field. If the [Player] field in
the left corner is not displayed in white, press
it.
(3) Switch the [GS≈RESET≈SEND] 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) Use the [Quick≈Start] field to quickly jump to
the first note of the selected song.
This function temporarily sets the tempo to =
250 – to race through empty measures at the
beginning of the song file (which may contain
important settings), thus avoiding that the
newly selected song begins with two measures
of “nothing” (which can be terribly long when
you’re in front of an audience). As soon as the
DisCover 5 reaches the first note, the tempo
returns to the programmed value.
