Reference Song Creator (Digital Recording) ■ Editing existing Chord events The Chord events already entered to the STEP RECORD display can be edited from the CHORD display. With the exception of the Expand function explained below, the operations for the CHORD display are the same as that of the channel data editing display (1-16 page) described on page 132. Press this to convert the recorded chord and section entries into song data. You'll need to execute the Expand operation to properly play back the data you entered in the STEP RECORD page (described on the previous page). NOTE • Chord and Section data recorded with Realtime Recording cannot be indicated and edited on this display. Events handled on the Chord Event list display (CHORD page) • Style • Tempo • Chord-Chord root, Chord type, On Bass Chord • Sect-Style Section (Intro, Main, Fill In, Break, Ending) • OnOff-On/off status for each part (channel) of the style • CH.Vol-Volume for each part (channel) of the style • S.Vol-Overall volume of the style Step Recording for Notes using the Event List The explanations here apply when you call up the "1-16" page in step #4 of the Basic Procedure on page 121. This page lets you create a song by entering notes one by one for each channel with precise timing, without having to perform them in real time. The Tyros2 lets you record the chords for style playback and the melody (explained here) separately. Use the 1-16 display if you wish to edit the already-recorded Note events one by one for each channel. Use the STEP RECORD display if you wish to enter the Note events from scratch. The song position at which you edit or input the event is indicated by the following three values. 001 : 1 : 1440 Beat Clock (1920 clocks per 1/4-note) Measure number (BAR) Pressing the button alternately switches the note selectors (at the bottom of the display) among three basic note values: normal, dotted and triplet. This sets the "size" of the next note event to be entered, and determines to what position the pointer will advance after it has been entered. NOTE • To input rests, simply specify the position for the next note (using the [BAR], [BEAT], and [CLOCK] LCD buttons) and input the note. Any "empty" interval between two successive notes is automatically registered as a rest. 127 Tyros2 Owner's Manual
