Every event contains three types of data: the timing, the event type,
and at least one event-specific parameter. Use the procedures below to
change an event’s timing or type.
Changing the Timing of an Event .....................................................
Common Parameters
INITIAL timing
You cannot change the timing of an
event that is set to INITIAL timing. When
you select such an event, the TIMING
button will only select the double-pointed
arrow symbol.
You can use the TIMING function to change the timing of an event.
Select the event whose timing you want to change as described in the
preceding subsection, then press the TIMING LCD button.
The first thing the TIMING function selects is the double-pointed
arrow symbol in the leftmost column of event data. You can use this
symbol to scroll the event list and display other events (see the sidebar
on page 148).
The TIMING function also selects three parameters — the measure,
beat, and clock values — that determine the timing of the event. You can
change these parameters much as described for the location setting (page
148), save that you use the TIMING function rather than the topmost
left LCD button to select between the parameters.
Changing the Event Type ..........................................................................
Double-pointed arrow
The number of event-specific param-
eters that are displayed for a given
event depends on the event’s type.
See the next subsection for a discus-
sion of the various event-specific pa-
rameters, as well as the CURSOR
functions that are used to select these
parameters.
If you change an event to an event
type which is not being displayed in the
event list (see page 161), the event will
“disappear” after you record the
change (see step 8 on page 149).
To change an event’s type, select the event you want to change as
described in the preceding subsection, then press EVENT TYPE LCD
button.
The event type icon is reverse-highlighted.
Use the data dial or the [–] and [+] buttons to select a different
event type.
Measure
Beat
Clock
148
Although the measure value selected by
the TIMING function has a range of 1 to
9999, the thousands digit is not shown;
hence, an actual value of 1000 will ap-
pear in the display as 000.
Step Edit
See the “Editable Events” table on the
next page for a list of event types that
can be selected.
The Tempo, Time Signature, and Note
events cannot be selected at the INI-
TIAL timing.
