8Editing Songs & Patterns
The QY20’s editing capability makes it easy to correct mistakes made when recording song
or pattern data, and to generally refine your sound.
The song and pattern edit “change” mode lets you individually modify the timing, pitch, gate
time (length) and velocity (loudness) of each note in the pattern. There’s also an edit “insert”
mode that allows insertion of note, program change, sustain on/off, pitch bend, modulation,
pan, volume, expression, and other events at any point in the pattern.
To engage the edit mode, place the cursor at the track you want to
edit in the normal SONG or PATTERN play mode, press the
[MENU] key, and then the function key next to “Edit” on the display.
