Playing Back Correctly from the
Middle of the Song (MIDI Update)
When you play back from the middle of a song, for example after
fast-forward or rewind, the correct patch may not be selected, or the
pitch may be incorrect. This is because the MIDI messages in the area
that you skipped have not been transmitted to the sound generator.
In such cases, you can use the MIDI Update function. When you
perform MIDI Update, the MIDI messages (other than Note
messages) from the beginning of the song until the location to which
you moved will be transmitted to the sound generator, ensuring that
the sound generator will be in the correct state for the resumption of
playback.
1. Make sure that song playback is stopped.
It is not possible to perform MIDI Update while the song is
playing.
2. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [STOP/PLAY].
The display will indicate “MIDI Update...” while processing
takes place, and when finished, will indicate “Complete !”
