UTILITY BASS Volume of each track q Changing the Initial Parameter Values The initial values of parameters marked with asterisks (*) in the lists given in step N on page 37 can be changed for each track or the entire song by engaging the record mode for the desired track, changing the parameters as required, and then disengaging the record mode (press the [REC] button again) without actually recording. To cancel any initial parameter values you've made, select a different track and then press the [REC] button to disengage the record mode. To change individual ABC part volume settings engage any ABC mode after turning [REC] on, set the RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and/or BASS volume control as required, then disengage the record mode. The BASS volume control can be used while holding the [UTILITY] button to independently adjust the volume of each track (except the rhythm track). The volume of the rhythm track is adjusted via the RHYTHM volume control. Please note that volume settings can only be decreased. Individual track reverb depth can be adjusted by using the BASS volume while holding the [REVERB] button, and the overall reverb depth can be adjusted by using the TEMPO [v] and [w] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button. Also note that the tempo, reverb type, style, style variation, fill-in, and intro/ending settings are common to all tracks and cannot be set independently for different tracks. NOTES • Only initial parameter data created by the CVP-89 can be changed. Data converted by the Convert to SMF functiion (page 53) cannot be changed. If the data cannot be changed, "DATA NOT EDITABLE!" will appear on the display. • Only the individual track volume can be changed for data converted by the Convert to DOC function (page 52). q Erasing the Tracks Individual tracks - except the rhythm track - can be completely erased by starting and stopping recording without actually playing or changing any parameters (i.e. press the [START/STOP] button twice). The same procedure can be used to erase the rhythm track if the RHYTHM volume control is set to its minimum position. NOTES • Tracks 3-10 can be erased by engaging the record mode, turning ABC on, and then pressing the [START/STOP] button twice.
