KR-3 – Saving User Styles

Note: If “Fill to Variation” or “Fill to Original” has been chosen for “Division”, only one measure can be cut out.

Note: Preset selections are used for divisions which are not selected.

Note: Be careful to remove all data types except the follow-

ing from your song before converting it to a User Style: Performance information from the keyboard (notes and pedal information), Reverb Depth, Chorus Depth.

Note: Once <EXEC> has been pressed, the previous settings cannot be recovered.

9.7 Saving User Styles

You can save User Styles onto floppy disks. You can call up Styles that have been saved to disk in the same way you do with Style disks.

1.Insert a formatted disk into the disk drive.

2.Press the [DISK/USER] button.

The Song Select Screen will be displayed.

3.Press <Save>.

4.Select a number with the <▲> and <▼> buttons to the left of the screen.

You can choose any number between “1” and “99”. Do note, however, that selecting a User Style number that already contains data means that the Style in question will be overwritten by your new User Style.

5.Enter a name for the User Style with <√> and

<®> below the display and the <▲> and <▼> buttons to the left of the screen.

Please refer to page 32 for the list of the available char- acters.

6.Press <Save>.

Note: If you want to cancel the operation, press the [EXIT] button.

9.8 Song Edit

The KR-3 has eight functions that you can use to edit the songs you have recorded.

Note: After carrying out one of the following functions, it may be impossible to restore the previous settings. Also, songs recorded with Arranger backing may sometimes yield surprising (and highly irritating) results. We recommend that you save your song to disk before editing it.

Steps for editing

1.On the Composer Menu screen, press <Song Edit>. An Edit Menu screen like the one below appears on the display.

2.Use the buttons next to the display to choose the editing function.

The Edit screen has two pages. Use <√√PAGE> and <PAGE®®> to bring up the other page.

1.Changing the Tempo and Volume of a song –Setup.

2.Aligning imperfect Notes – Quantize

3.Erasing notes or tracks – Erase

4.Duplicating phrases – Copy

5.Deleting measures – Delete

6.Inserting blank measures – Insert

7.Changing the key – Transpose

8.Swapping and copying tracks – Track Exchange/ Track Copy

Note: To cancel an operation, press the [EXIT] button.

You can also edit a song on a floppy disk: Insert the disk in the disk drive and play back the performance one time. Then edit it.

Setup: tempo and volume

Changes in tempo and volume that are made with the TEMPO and Part Volume buttons are only temporary. If you like your new settings better than the original ones, here is how to correct your song:

Before selecting the Song Edit screen, set the tempo by pressing the TEMPO buttons, and set the volume of the tracks you want to change in the 16-track Sequencer screen.

1.Press <Setup> on the Edit screen.

A screen like the one shown below will appear.
