Quantize: timing corrections

Quantize is a function that corrects minor timing problems. It shifts notes whose timing are not exactly on the beat to the nearest beat.

Be careful, though, because the timing of the quan- tized notes may be mathematically correct, while the result may not be what you expected. Always select a resolution value that is fine enough to accept all note values you play. If the shortest notes of your accompa- niment are 1/16th note triplets, set the Resolution value to 1/16t.

1.Press <Quantize>.

2.Use <> and <®> below the display to select a parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>. Track— Track number (you can also select “All” tracks)

From— The starting measure

For — The number of bars from the starting measure (you can also select “All” measures).

Resolution— Note value to be used for correcting the timing. (Select the length of the shortest note of the data to be quantized.)

3.Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings and edit the data.

Erase: removing data from a track or song

Erase is a function that erases a portion of the selected song, without removing the measures themselves. That will leave you with the equivalent number of blank measures. You could then record new data in those measures using the Punch In/Out recording method (see page 36).

Note: The notes you erase cannot be restored.

1.Press <Erase>.

2.Use <> and <®> below the display to select a parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>. “Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize: timing corrections”.

Event refers to the types of data that will be erased:

All: all data

Note: the notes you played on the keyboard.

Except Note: all data except the notes (e.g. footswitch, Pitch Bend, and Modulation data).

Tempo: all tempo settings (changes) except the preset tempo. “Tempo” erases all tempo data, regardless of the Track numbers that have been selected.

3. Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings and edit the data.

Copy(ing) measures

This copies a portion of a track to another bar of the same track. Use this function if you’d rather not play the chorus or verse of a song more than once.

Note: All data present at the copy destination is overwritten by what is copied.

1.Press <Copy>.

2.Use <> and <®> below the display to select a parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>. “Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize: timing corrections”.

To — The copy destination measure (“End” refers to the end of the song).

Times— The number of times the selected measures are to be copied.

3.Press the <EXEC> button to confirm your settings and edit the data.

Delete: removing measures

Though similar to Erase, the Delete function also removes the selected measures. You cannot select the data type to be deleted because Delete removes every- thing.

Delete means “remove all measures within the speci- fied range” (for example bars 1 and 2 of a track, so that bar 3 becomes bar 1).

Note: Once a measure has been deleted, it cannot be restored.

1.Press <Delete>.

2.Use <> and <®> below the display to select a parameter, and set the value with <+> and <–>. “Track”, “From”, “For”: see step (2) under “Quantize: timing corrections”.
