Editing Songs

Copying or merging may sometimes create blank measures at the
beginning of a phrase track or pattern. Truncate deletes silent
portions from the beginning of the specified phrase track to the first
note-on.

*

If other sequencer data (such as program changes or control changes)
is recorded between the beginning and the first note-on of the specified
phrase track, only the last data event of each type will be placed before
the note-on.

For details on the settings, refer to

Basic Operation for Track

Editing

(p. 133).

Below the Track/Pattern parameter is displayed the location of the
beginning of the specified track, and the position of the first note-on.

in a song, such as MIDI messages and tempo data.
