After the operation (with the exception of the SETUP page) is completed, this button changes to [UNDO], letting you restore the original data if you are not satisfied with the Operation results. The Undo function only has one level; only the previous operation can be undone. 4 After you've finished creating/editing a song, make sure to execute the Save operation. The recorded song will be lost if you change to another song or you turn the power off without executing the save operation. 2 Set the parameters as desired.

Quantize lets you "clean up" or "tighten" the timing of a previously recorded track. For example, the following musical passage has been written with exact quarter-note and eighth-note values. When actually recording the passage in real time, however, you may not play it with perfect accuracy. Quantize allows you to align all the notes so that the timing is absolutely accurate to the specified note value. CHANNEL Determines which MIDI channel in the song data is to be quantized. Set the Quantize size to correspond to the shortest note value in the channel you are working with. For example, if the data was recorded with both quarter notes and eighth notes, use 1/8 note for the Quantize size. If you apply a 1/4 note Quantize size, the eighth notes would be moved on top of the quarter notes. One measure of eighth notes before quantization After 1/8 note quantization Settings: SIZE 1/4 note 1/4 note triplet 1/8 note 1/8 note triplet 1/16 note 1/16 note triplet 1/32 note 1/8 note+ 1/8 note triplet* 1/16 note+ 1/8 note triplet* 1/16 note+ 1/16 note triplet* The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are exceptionally convenient, since they allow you to quantize two different note values at the same time, without compromising the quantization of either one. For example, if you have both straight 1/8 notes and 1/8 note triplets recorded to the same channel, and you quantize to straight 1/8 notes, all notes in the channel are quantized to straight 1/8 notes ­ completely eliminating any triplet feel in the rhythm. However, if you use the 1/8 note + 1/8 note triplet setting, both the straight and triplet notes will be quantized correctly. Determines how strongly the notes will be quantized. If a value less than 100% is selected, notes will be moved toward the specified quantization beats only by the specified amount. Applying less than 100% quantization lets you preserve some of the "human" feel in the recording.

This function lets you mix the data of two channels and place the results in a different channel. It also lets you copy the data from one channel to another. SOURCE1 Determines the MIDI channel (1 - 16) to be mixed. All MIDI events of the channel specified here are copied to the destination channel. Only note events of the channel specified here are copied to the destination channel. Besides the values 1 - 16, there is a "COPY" setting that allows you to copy the data from Source 1 to the destination channel. Determines the channel into which the mix or copy results will be placed.
