Status parameter, specify the range. Set “Range Min” to the lowest
value of the range, and “Range Max” to the highest value of the
range.

to “C-1” and “Range Max” to“G9.” To copy C4, set “Range Min”

parameter is set to “EXC,” “TUNE” or “PTN,” the Channel

Inserting a Blank Measure

(Insert)

This function inserts blank measures into a specified song position.
As you can set the time signature of the blank measures, this is
convenient when inserting a phrase having a different time signature
in the middle of a song.

Editing”
(p. 151)

Track / Pattern (Source Track)

Specifies the track(s) or pattern into which blank measures will be
inserted.

Value

ALL:

Phrase tracks 1–16, the beat track, and the tempo track

TRK 1–TRK 16:

The specified phrase track

TEMPO:

Tempo track

PTN001–PTN100: The specified pattern

Measure, For (Edit Range)

Specifies the measure location at which the blank measures are to be
inserted, and the number of blank measures to be inserted.

Beat

In general, the time signature of the measure immediately before
insertion will be used for the blank measures. To change the time
signature of the blank measures to be inserted, use the Beat
parameter.

Beat can be specified only when you have set the Track
parameter to “ALL.”

Transpose the Key (Transpose)

This transposes the pitch of notes within a specified area, over a +/-
127 semitone range. Use this function to modulate from one key to
another in a song, or to transpose the entire song.
