Delete

[FUNCTION MENU] button[User Style Composer] field[Edit] field[Delete]

Erase allows you to selectively delete data either within a specified range of the pattern(s), or from the entire track(s). In Data Type ALL mode, Erase will substitute the required number of rests for the data you delete, so that you end up with the equivalent number of blank measures. If you also want to eliminate the measures themselves, use Delete (see page 178).

Track (ADrums~Acc6, ALL)— Allows you to select the track you wish to edit. You can also select ALL here, in which case the operation applies to all tracks of the selected pattern.

Mode— Allows you to select the mode of the pattern to be edited: Maj (major), min (minor) or 7 (seventh).

Type— Allows you to select the pattern type to be edited: Basic or Advanced.

Division— This parameter is used to select the Divi- sion of the pattern: Original or Variation.

From/To— “From” refers to the position where the edit operation is to begin. That position can be speci- fied in a Bar-Beat-CPT format. “To” designates the position where the edit operation is to end (Bar-Beat- CPT value).

Bar (1~9999)— This is where you specify the bar position. By default, the From and To values are set to the beginning and end of the selected track(s). Note that the To value always refers to the end of the longest track.

Beat (1~[number of beats per bar])— This is where you specify the beat position. The number of select- able beats obviously depends on the time signature of the selected pattern.

CPT— This is where you specify the CPT position of the beginning and end. Unless you do not need to edit all the selected data within the last bar, you should keep the default setting. Note that the Micro mode allows you to edit the data on an event basis, which is more precise because there you see the events to be edited, which is not the case here. If you only wish to edit one event (or message), you should definitely do so in the Microscope mode (see page 181).

Data Type— Use [i][m] to select the data to be edited. See the table above for a list of the available data types.

Unlike to the Erase function, Delete also erases the measures, so that all measures that lie behind the “To” position, will be shifted towards the beginning of the track(s). Since Delete also disposes of the measures, you cannot choose the data type to be erased.

Track, Mode, Type, Division— See page 178 for

details.

From/To— “From” refers to the position where the edit operation is to begin. That position is specified as Bar-Beat-CPT values. “To” designates the position where the edit operation is to end (Bar-Beat-CPT value).

Bar, Beat, CPT— See page 178 for details.

Note that the Micro mode allows you to edit the data on an event basis, which is more precise because there you see the events to be edited, which is not the case here. If you only wish to edit one event (or message), you should definitely do so in the Microscope mode (see page 181).

Execute— Press this field to confirm your settings and edit the data.
