To edit a specific Song, you must first select that Song as the current Song. Do that by calling up the appropriate Song number on the Song Mode Main Screen. Then, press the PROGRAMS button (the red LED under the PROGRAMS button will light). The number of the Song being edited will always appear in the top left corner of the various Song Edit pages.

When editing a Song, you progress from one edit page to the next by pressing the PAGE button.

When you are finished making changes, press the PROGRAMS button again. You will be prompted to save the changes (see the Save Song Page, below).

Song Speed Page

Song:YY Speed (0 is fast): xxx

The Song Speed page operates in exactly the same manner as the Program Speed page described above. However, the Song Speed overrides the Speed settings of any Programs called up by any of the Song Steps.

Song Items Page

Song:XX : 1 2 3 4

Programs: 0 0 0 0

Here’s where the action is. The Song Items page allows you to specify a sequence of Programs along with a variety of options for navigating the sequence.

To specify the contents of a Song Step, use the cursor buttons to move to the step number and then use the data knob to select the desired Item for that Step. Each Song contains 15 Steps. Continuing to press a cursor button when the cursor has reached the leftmost or rightmost displayed Step Number will cause additional Step Numbers to cycle across the display.

Each Song Step may contain one of the following Items:

##(A Program Number) While this Song Step is active, the input audio will be pitch corrected according to the scale associated with this Program. All other Program parameters (i.e., Speed and Vibrato) will be ignored.

B (Bypass) While this Song Step is active, the ATR-1a is put into Bypass Mode.
