■ERASE EVENT
• Use the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [ß][†] buttons to

select the event you want to delete.

• To select several consecutive events, press the

[DATA÷ENTRY] dial while turning it towards the left
(upward direction) or the right (downward direction).

• Press the [ERASE¥EVENT] button icon to remove the

event you selected.

■MOVE EVENT

This function allows you to move one or several
events.

Note: If the position to which you move the selected event
already contains other events, the moved event is added at the
end of that group.

• Select the event you want to move.

Note: For this function, you could take advantage of the VIEW
filter to avoid selecting event types that should remain where
they are. See “VIEW” on p. 175.
Note: Events located at “1-01-00” cannot be moved further to
the left.

• To select several consecutive events, press the

[DATA÷ENTRY] dial while turning it towards the left
(upward direction) or the right (downward direction).
All events selected in this way appear on a blue back-
ground.

• Press the [MOVE¥EVENT] button icon. The following

pop-up appears:

• Specify the position to which the first event (in chro-

nological order) of the selected group should be
shifted by pressing the [BAR], [BEAT] and [CPT] fields
and entering the desired value for each unit using
the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.

• Press the [EXECUTE] field to confirm your settings

and move the event.
Press [CLOSE] to close the pop-up window without
applying your changes.

■COPY EVENT

This function allows you to copy one or several
events. Use [PLACE¥EVENT] to insert a copy of those
events at the desired position.

Note: For this function, you could take advantage of the VIEW
filter to avoid selecting event types that should not be
included in the copy. See “VIEW” on p. 173.

• To select several consecutive events, press the

[DATA÷ENTRY] dial while turning it towards the left
(upward direction) or the right (downward direction).
All events selected in this way appear on a blue back-
ground.

• Press the [COPY¥EVENT] button icon.

The new selection will replace the previous one.

■PLACE EVENT

This function is only available if the sequencer’s clip-
board already contains events that you copied using
COPY EVENT. For safety reasons, it would be a good
idea to use this function immediately after copying
events.

Press the [PLACE¥EVENT] button icon. The following
pop-up appears:

• Specify the position where the first event of the

group you copied with [COPY¥EVENT] should be
inserted by pressing the [BAR], [BEAT] and [CPT] fields
and entering the desired value for each unit using
the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.

• Press the [EXECUTE] field to confirm your settings

and add the new event(s).
Press [CLOSE] to close the pop-up window without
applying your changes.

Note: Events inserted with PLACE EVENT are added to any
events that may already exist in that area. Existing events are
thus not pushed towards the end of the song.
