A p p e n d i x Patch: An assignment of phrases for each track to create patterns. Pattern: An auto accompaniment pattern consisting of drums, bass and chord backing. Pattern track (Pt): The track which records and plays back pattern data. PC-9801/9821 Series: A type of personal computer manufactured and sold by the NEC Corporation widely in Japan. Compatible computers are manufactured and sold by the EPSON Company. Phrase: The smallest unit from which the accompaniment pattern is created. A phrase, such as drum phrase, bass phrase, etc., can be assigned to one of the 8 tracks of the pattern. Phrase category: A classification of phrases that are categorized by instruments and performance styles. Pitch bend: A type of MIDI message that smoothly changes the pitch. Pitch bend wheel: A controller that smoothly changes the pitch. On the QY70, pitch bend can be applied by holding the [OCT DOWN] key while playing a note on the micro keyboard. Portamento: An effect that smoothly changes the pitch from one note to another note. Higher settings of Portamento Time will produce a slower change, and there will be no effect with a setting of 0. Preset: A type of memory that is built into a device. The QY70 has preset memories for voices, phrases, and patterns, etc. Program change: An event or MIDI message that selects a voice. Program number: On the QY70, a number specifying one of the GM-defined voices. Q Quantize: A function which "Tightens up" the inexact timing of notes or other events that were entered in real-time. QY Data Filer: A computer software application that allows for the exchange of QY70 data between the computer and the QY70. Data from the QY70 can be saved in the computer and QY data stored in the computer can be transmitted to the QY70. Commercially available SMF song data or XG song data can also be transmitted from the computer to the QY70. R Realtime recording: , A method of recording in which your performance is recorded just as you play, similar to a conventional multi-track recorder. Since the performance is recorded as you play, the musical expression and nuances of your performance will be accurately recorded. Redo: Carries out the operation that was previously 15 canceled with Undo. Release time: The time over which the volume falls from the sustain level (beginning at the moment a note is released) until it reaches silence. 239
