Song Creator

The clipboard is a temporary “holding place” for the copied data (as done in Steps #3 and #4 above). Once the data is in the clipboard, and as long as no other data has been copied there, the data can be pasted to other locations — as many times as desired. Keep in mind that copying data automatically erases whatever data was originally in the clipboard. (The data at the original location in the song remains intact.)

■Event Filter

This function lets you select the event types that appear on the editing displays. To select an event for display, place a checkmark in the box next to the event name. To fil- ter out an event type (so that it does not appear on the list), remove the checkmark so that the box is empty. See below for details.

Chord Step (Quick Recording)

The Chord Step recording feature makes it possible to record Auto Accompaniment chord (page 70) changes one at a time with precise timing. Since the changes don’t have to be entered in real time, it is easy to create even complex chord changes and accompaniment before recording the melody.

The explanations here apply to step #6 on page 111.
