Editing Songs

This chapter explains the procedure for editing songs.
When you’re going to edit a song, you have to first load it into the
Temporary Area.
The Temporary Song will be lost if you turn power off or load
another song into Temporary Area. If Temporary Area contains a
song you wish to keep, you must save that song to user memory or
memory card (p. 150).

Press [SONG EDIT <-> LIST] twice to access the SONG LIST
screen.

If you play back the song while the SNG EDIT (TRK) screen is
displayed, the screen will scroll in keeping with the song
playback location.
The Fantom-Xa can record data for multiple MIDI channels in a
single track. From the SNG EDIT (TRK) screen, press [PAGE] to see
which channel(s) of data are found in each track (the TRACK VIEW
screen).
This screen graphically shows the note data of each channel. The
height of the bar indicates the note pitch, and the length of the bar
indicates the duration.
Press [PAGE] once again to return to the previous screen.
