5 Send Button

When you click on this button, the setting information in the SW1000XG Mixer is sent as MIDI
data through the MIDI output port selected in the Setup dialog (

P. 34) to the XG tone gener-

ator (sound card).

6 Insert Button

Opens the Insert Dialog. The parameter settings made in the SW1000XG Mixer will be insert-
ed/entered into the song as system exclusive data events.

Insert Dialog

Track

……………Select the track for insertion. This is connected to “Track” on the setup

dialog (

P. 34).

Meas

……………Specify the measure for insertion.

Beat

……………Specify the insertion position in beat units.

Clock

…………Specify the insertion position in clock units.

Interval Time

……When multiple events are being inserted, specify the insertion interval

from event to event in clock units.

Offset

…………When you check the box by clicking on it, only event parameter settings

that are different than the initial SW1000XG Mixer settings will be inserted
into the song as events. This avoids having the song data become too
loaded with repeated insertions of events with the same values.

n

When inserting events in the song using Offset, a SW1000XG Mixer initial settings event must be previ-
ously inserted at the beginning of the song.

After specifying the track for insertion in the Track box, specify the position in the song
using Meas (measure), Beat, and Clock units, and click the [OK] button. The current effect,
pan, and volume settings will be inserted as events in the specified track at the specified
location. To cancel the operation before finishing it, click [Cancel]. The dialog will close, and
the events will not be inserted.

7 Record Button

When this button is clicked, song playback will begin (from the current location), and at the
same time, recording of every parameter for the SW1000XG Mixer (knob or slider) operation
will begin. When this button is again clicked, song playback and recording of parameter opera-
tions will stop.
During recording, every movement of a knob or slider will be recorded. When you want
parameters like pan and volume are changed continuously, this function is extremely useful
because it lets you record smooth changes in the values.

Audio Part Unit

The knobs and sliders for the various audio part settings, like volume, pan, and effects are arranged
vertically for each part. From left to right: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and so on. The part on the far right
side is part 14. Each control can be easily adjusted by clicking or dragging with the mouse.
