A p p e n d i x Fingered chord: A function that automatically detects chords based on the combination of notes that are played on the keyboard, and converts the playback of patterns to the chords that are detected. G Gate Time: The length of time that a note actually sounds. Longer gate times produce slurred notes, shorter gate times produce staccato. GM: An acronym for General MIDI. A specification that defines the arrangement of voices in a tone generator and its MIDI functionality, ensuring that data can be played back with substantially the same sounds on any GMcompatible tone generator. Groove quantization: A Play Effect function that can be applied to Song or Pattern data during playback. This effect allows the song's feel or "groove" (putting the rhythm in front of or behind the beat) to be altered without changing the state of the original data. Groove templates: A collection of groove templates that can be used in the Groove Quantization function. H Hexadecimal number: A system of numbering based on 16, in which the digits increment in units of n-th powers of 16. The alphabetical characters AF are used to express the numbers 10-15. This system of numbering is used for MIDI data. I IBM-PC/AT Series: A type of personal computer manufactured and sold by the International Business Machine Corporation. Compatible computers are manufactured and sold by many companies Insertion (effect): An effect which can be applied to one specific part (track). With this effect, you can apply effects more "aggressively" to your song. (e.g. rotary speaker effects to organ sounds, or "wah" effects to guitar sounds.) Interval time: A delay time that is inserted at regular intervals of one kilobyte when transmitting system exclusive data that was recorded in a sequence track to tone generators (or external MIDI tone generators). L LFO: An acronym for Low Frequency Oscillator, a block that produces a signal at a low frequency which synthesizers use for the creation of sound. The signal from the LFO can be used to modulate pitch, volume or tone to produce effects such as vibrato, tremolo and wah. Location: The place within a song or pattern at which notes will be input or playback will be started, indicated as measure, beat, and , clock. Low Pass Filter: A type of filter which cuts high frequencies above a specified point. The sound can be brightened by raising the cutoff frequency of the filter, or darkened by lowering it. LSB: An acronym for Least Significant Byte, 15 referring to the lower byte of data when MIDI control change data is divided into two bytes for transmission. 237
