The Song Jobs 16: Mix Track Combines the data contained in two specified tracks and places the result in the second track. NOTE If there is no data in the second track, the data from the first track is simply copied to the second track (the time signature is not copied). In many situations you may want to "overdub," or add new material to a single track without deleting the previous material. This is dangerous, however, since you can ruin one or more layers of good material by making a mistake during a later overdub. The QY300 eliminates this possibility by allowing only "replace" recording (i.e. all material recorded to a track erases an replaces any previous material on that track). In order to record more than one layer of material to a single track (using the same voice, of course), first record the layers on separate tracks, then after ensuring that there are no mistakes, use the Mix Track job to combine these separate tracks onto a single track. The upper and center "Song" parameters select the first and second source songs- i.e. the songs containing the tracks which are to be mixed: "01" ... "10". Both of these Song parameters should be set to the same song number if you're mixing tracks from a single song. The upper and center "TR" parameters select the first and second source tracks - i.e. the tracks which are to be mixed: "01" ... "16". The lower "Song" and "TR" parameters are always the same as the center parameters. After setting the parameters as required press [ENTER] to execute the Mix Track 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 [F6] key ("Exit") to return to the job list, or a mode key to go directly to the selected mode. 17: Clear Track Completely clears the specifed track from the currently selected song (including all Play Effect parameters). 50

The Song Jobs
16: Mix Track
Combines the data contained in two specified tracks and places the result in
the second track.
The upper and center
“Song”
parameters select the first and second source
songs— i.e. the songs containing the tracks which are to be mixed: “01” …
“10”. Both of these Song parameters should be set to the same song number if
you’re mixing tracks from a single song.
The upper and center
“TR”
parameters select the first and second source
tracks — i.e. the tracks which are to be mixed: “01” … “16”.
The lower
“Song”
and
“TR”
parameters are always the same as the center
parameters.
After setting the parameters as required press
[ENTER]
to execute the Mix
Track 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
[F6]
key (“Exit”) to return to the job list, or a mode key to go directly
to the selected mode.
17: Clear Track
Completely clears the specifed track from the currently selected song (includ-
ing all Play Effect parameters).
NOTE
If there is no data in the
second track, the data from the
first track is simply copied to the
second track (the time signature
is not copied).
In many situations you
may want to “overdub,”
or add new material to
a single track without deleting
the previous material. This is
dangerous, however, since you
can ruin one or more layers of
good material by making a mis-
take during a later overdub. The
QY300 eliminates this possibility
by allowing only “replace” re-
cording (i.e. all material re-
corded to a track erases an re-
places any previous material on
that track). In order to record
more than one layer of material
to a single track (using the same
voice, of course), first record the
layers on separate tracks, then
after ensuring that there are no
mistakes, use the Mix Track job
to combine these separate tracks
onto a single track.
