3. Track numbers; keyboard-track setting
• Each sequence track and pattern track is identified by a track
number.
• The highlighted track number identifies the current keyboard
track. Note that the highlight is not related to cursor action.
• The keyboard track (unlike all other tracks) is connected
internally to the keyboard. This means that you can add key-
board play to the track while song replay is in progress.
Your keyboard play will be transmitted (along with the
track’s other data) to the tone generator block and MIDI
OUT destinations selected by the track’s Output Channel
settings. (→ p.105)
