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 Perf parameter is selected, press SHIFT + DELETE to delete all Performance Change events, starting from the current posi- tion to the end of the Song. To delete all Per- formance 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.

SE (Style Element)

This is the Style Element (i.e., a Variation, Fill, Intro, or End- ing). The length of the selected Style Element is always shown on the measure counter, at the top of the display:

This will let you know where to place the following Style Ele- ment Change. For example, if you inserted an Intro event lasting for 4 measures, you can insert 4 empty measure after this event, and a Variation event at the end of the Intro, beginning at the 4th empty measure.

“Off” means that the accompaniment will not play at the selected position – only the Realtime tracks will play.

Hint: Insert a Style Element Off event exactly where the auto- accompaniment must stop, at the end of the Song.

“No chord” means that the accompaniment will not play at the current position (apart for the Drum and Percussion tracks). To select the “No chord” option, press F1 to select the Name part of the Chord, then use the TEMPO/VALUE sec- tion to select the very last value (C…B, Off).

Transport controls

While in Step Mode, you can use various control panel but- tons to accomplish the editing procedure.

<< or >> (Rewind or Fast Forward)

Use these buttons to move to the previous or following mea- sure. These commands are effective even if the M(easure) parameter is not selected.

< or > (Previous or Next Step)

Use these button to go to the previous or next step (1/8, or 192 ticks). If an event is located before the previous or next step, the locator stops on that event. For example, if you are positioned on M001.01.000, and no event exists before M001.01.192, the > button moves to the M001.01.192 loca- tion. If an event exists on M001.01.010, the > button stops to the M001.01.010 location.

These commands are effective even if the M(easure) parame- ter is not selected.

+ < or > (Previous or Next Event)

Keep the SHIFT button pressed while pressing the < or > button, to move to the previous or next recorded event.
