Song Mixing mode

In this mode, you can set up and save mixing data for your songs, and set various parameters for the tone generator parts — including the desired voice, as well as its level, pan, EQ, effect and other settings.

How the Song Mixing mode affects the tone generator parts, and how it is affected by other elements is made clear by the following diagram.

Tone Generator

Song Mixing parameters are not actually part of the song data, but rather are settings for the tone generator, as it is played back by the song data. As such, the Song Mixing parameter settings are not recorded to the song tracks.

nEven if the selected song has no sequence data, this Mixing data can be stored to User memory as song data. Playing back such song data transmits the mixing setup to the external MIDI instrument.

◆The [] Indicator

If you alter any parameters in the Song Mixing mode, the [ ] indicator will appear in the top left of the display. This indicates that the current Song Mixing settings have has been modified but not yet stored.

Edit indicator

The [ ] indicator will disappear when you select another song and all edited data will be lost. It is a good idea to store the edited song data in the Song Mixing Store mode (page 214). Even if you lose the Song Mixing edited data, you can restore it by using the Edit Recall function (page 158).

nAs shown above, the Song Mixing settings can be affected or overridden by song playback and external MIDI data. Keep in mind that because of this, the [ ] indicator may appear in the display

— even though you’ve made no changes or edits to the Song Mixing settings yourself.
