13 : Thin Out“Thins out” specified types of data by removing every other event of
the specified type. This is particularly useful for reducing the volume of
data required for pitch bends, aftertouch and other control change opera-
tions, thus making more efficient use of the available memory.
The “TR” parameter selects the track to be affected by the Thin Out
job: D1, D2, PC, BA, C1, C2, C3, C4.
The “M” parameters above the graphic bar are used to specify the
first measure:beat and last measure:beat of the range to be modified.
The data type parameter determines the type of data to be thinned.
PB Pitch bend events.
CC Control change events. When this event type is selected a control
change number parameter appears to the right of the type
parameter. The control change parameter determines the MIDI
control change number to be thinned: “000” … “127”.
CAT Channel aftertouch events.
PAT Polyphonic aftertouch events.
After setting the parameters as required press [ENTER] to execute
the Thin Out job. The metronome icon will appear on the display while the
data is being processed, then “Completed” will appear briefly when the
job is done. Press the [EXIT] key to return to the job list, or a mode key to
go directly to the selected mode.
