Each time you press the [SONG] button, you’ll switch between the Song Play screen and Song

Edit screen.

You can change the location at which a sample/phrase plays back, or move it to a different track.

Use the cursor buttons to select the sample/phrase that you want to move, and perform the following

operations depending on how you want to move it.

If you’re using a USB mouse, you can move a sample/phrase by dragging it with the mouse

(hold down the left mouse button and move it).

You can copy the sample/phrase immediately following its current location in the track.

If you want a phrase loop to play repeatedly for several measures, this provides a way to quickly create

copies of it.

Use the cursor buttons to select the sample/phrase that you want to copy, and press [F3 (Copy)] to copy it to

the immediately following location.
