M(easure)

This is the locator. It shows the current position of the Step Editor. To go to a different position within the Song, select this parameter, then use the TEMPO/VALUE controls, the A VOLUME/VALUE buttons, or the < > buttons (while the <<

>>buttons let you move to the previous or following mea- sure). When using one of these controls, the locator moves in steps of 1/8 (192 ticks), or jumps to the next event.

The locator’s format is as follows:

M001.01.000

Measure Beat Tick

Measure: Measure or bar number.

Beat: Divider in the Time Signature ratio (e.g., a quarter in a 3/4 time).

Tick: Minimal sequencer’s resolution. The Pa50 internal sequencers feature a resolution of 384 ticks per quarter.

INSERT	When the Measure parameter is selected, press
	INSERT to insert a measure starting from the
	current position. All Chord/Acc events con-
	tained into the current measure will be moved
	to the following measure. The event at the
	Mxxx.xx.000 position (i.e., exactly at the
	beginning of the measure, like a Time Signa-
	ture or Style change) will not be moved.
DELETE	When the Measure parameter is selected, press
	DELETE to delete the current measure. All
	Chord/Acc event contained into the following
	measures are moved to the current measure.

SHIFT + DELETE

When the Measure parameter is selected, press SHIFT + DELETE to delete all events in the Style tracks, starting from the current position to the end of the Song. To delete all events in the Style tracks, go back to the M001.01.000 position, and press SHIFT + DELETE.

Note: All events on the very first tick (M001.01.000), like Style, Tempo, Chord, Style Element selection, cannot be deleted.

Tempo

This is the Tempo Change parameter. To insert a Tempo Change event at the current position, select this parameter and use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change its value.

DELETE When the Tempo parameter is selected, and

the side arrow ( ) – showing that a Tempo Change event has been selected at the current position – appears next to it, press DELETE to delete the Tempo Change at the current posi- tion.

Note: If the side arrow doesn’t appear, the event was not selected at the current position, and will not be deleted.

SHIFT + DELETE

When the Tempo parameter is selected, press SHIFT + DELETE to delete all Tempo Change events, starting from the current position to

the end of the Song. To delete all Tempo Change events in the Song, go back to the M001.01.000 position, and press SHIFT +

DELETE.

Note: All events on the very first tick (M001.01.000), like Perf, Style, Tempo, Chord, Style Element selection, cannot be deleted.

Style

This is the last selected Style. To insert a Style change at the current position, follow the standard selecting procedure using the buttons of the STYLE section.

Note: Any Style Change inserted after the beginning of the mea- sure (i.e., to a position other than Mxxx.01.000) will be effective at the following measure. For example, if a Style Change event has been inserted at M004.03.000, the selected Style will be effectively selected at M005.01.000. (This works exactly as in Style Play mode).

Note: When inserting a Style Change, you may also insert a Tempo Change at the same position. A Style Change will not automatically insert the Style’s Tempo.

DELETE When the Style parameter is selected, and the

side arrow ( ) – showing that a Style Change event has been selected at the current position

–appears next to it, press DELETE to delete the Style Change at the current position. Note: If the side arrow doesn’t appear, the event was not selected at the current position, and will not be deleted.

SHIFT + DELETE

When the Style parameter is selected, press SHIFT + DELETE to delete all Style Change events, starting from the current position to the end of the Song. To delete all Style Change events in the Song, go back to the M001.01.000 position, and press SHIFT +

DELETE.

Note: All events on the very first tick (M001.01.000), like Perf, Style, Tempo, Chord, Style Element selection, cannot be deleted.

Perf

This is the last selected Performance. Select a Performance to recall the Style it memorizes. To insert a Performance change at the current position, follow the standard selecting proce- dure using the buttons of the PROGRAM/PERFORMANCE section.

Note: The STYLE CHANGE LED is automatically turned on when entering the Chord/Acc Step Mode. This means that selecting a Performance automatically selects the Style memo- rized into the Performance.

The SINGLE TOUCH and STS buttons are automatically dis- abled, meaning that you can’t change the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks while in Chord/Acc Step Mode.

DELETE	When the Perf parameter is selected, and the
	side arrow ( ) – showing that a Performance
	Change event has been selected at the current
	position – appears next to it, press DELETE to
	delete the Performance Change at the current
	position.
