VOICE PERF SONG PATTERN MIX MASTER REMOTE UTILITY QUICK SET FILE StartStep (Starting Step) EndStep (Ending Step) Determines the size of the step (i.e., the number of clocks) between each note in the roll. The smaller the value, the finer the roll. Both the starting and ending clock values can be specified, making it easy to create rolls in which the step size varies during the roll. Settings: StartStep: 001 - 999, EndStep: 001 - 999 Note Determines the specific note (or instrument in Drum voices) for the roll effect. You can also set the note directly from the keyboard, by holding down the [SF6] KBD button and pressing the desired key. Settings: C -2 - G8 StartVelo (Starting Velocity) EndVelo (Ending Velocity) Determines the velocity of the notes in the roll. Both the starting and ending velocity values can be specified, making it easy to create rolls in which the velocity increases or decreases. This lets you create rolls that gradually increase or decrease in volume (crescendo/decrescendo) Settings: StartVelo: 001 - 127, EndVelo: 001 - 127 08: Sort Chord This Job sorts chord events (simultaneous note events) by order of pitch. The sort affects the order of the notes in the event list display (page 84), but does not change the timing of the notes. When used to pre-process chords before using the Separate Chord Job (below), Chord Sort can be used to simulate the "stroke" or strumming sound of guitars and similar instruments. TR (Track) 001 : 1 : 000 - 999 : 4 : 479 Determines the Track (01 - 16, all) and range of measures/beats/clocks over which the Job is applied. Type Determines how the chord note data is sorted. Settings: up, down, up&down, down&up up The notes are sorted in ascending order. After executing this Job with this setting, execute the Separate Chord Job to create a guitar-like upstroke strum. down The notes are sorted in descending order. After executing this Job with this setting, execute the Separate Chord Job to create a guitar-like downstroke strum. up&down Sorts chord notes on downbeats in ascending order and chord notes on upbeats in descending order, based on the Grid setting (below). down&up Sorts chord notes on downbeats in descending order and chord notes on upbeats in ascending order, based on the Grid setting (below). Grid Determines the type of note that serves as the basis for the Chord Sort Job. Settings: 32nd note, 16th note triplet, 16th note, 8th note triplet, 8th note, 1/4 note triplet, 1/4 note 09: Separate Chord This Job slightly separates notes in chords within the specified range, inserting a specified number of clocks between each note. Use this Job after the Chord Sort Job above, to create guitar-like upstroke or downstroke effects. TR (Track) 001 : 1 : 000 - 999 : 4 : 479 Determines the Track (01 - 16, all) and range of measures/beats/clocks over which the Job is applied.

Settings: 000 - 999 NOTE Note that there are 480 clock cycles per quarter note. NOTE It is not possible to separate chords so that they cross into the next chord or they overstep the range (set above). MOX6/MOX8 Reference Manual 90
