92| Playing and singing
reading the lyrics and chords loaded as a
text file
If the text has been linked or loaded as a text (TXT) file, it will not scroll au-
tomatically while the Song is playing back. You can manually scroll it in one
of the following ways.
Scroll the text on the display
▪ Scroll the text by using the VALUE controls or the vertical scrollbar .
Scroll the text with a footswitch or EC5 switch
1 Go to the Global > Controllers > Foot page, or the Global > Controllers > EC5
page, and assign the Text Page Down commands to the footswitch or EC5
switch .
2 Return to the Lyrics page, and scroll the text by using the programmed foot-
switch or EC5 switch .
Scroll the text with a switch
1 Go to the Style Play or Song Play > Pads/Switches > Switch page, and assign
the Text Page Down commands to one of the assignable switches .
2 Write the changes to the a Keyboard Set.
3 Return to the Lyrics page, and scroll the text by using the programmed as-
signable switch .
Please note that programming an assignable switch will tie the page scroll
command to a particular Keyboard Set or SongBook Entry, dedicated to a
particular Song based on an external text file. On the contrary, programming
the footswitch or EC5 switch will offer a global option, that will not change
when choosing a different Keyboard Set or SongBook Entry.
Loading a text file with the same name of the Song
Lyrics and chords may be contained in a TXT file having the same name of
a MIDI Song or an MP3 Song. For example, if a ‘MySong.txt’ file exists in the
same folder as the ‘MySong.mid’ file or ‘MySong.mp3’ file, loading this latter
will load the TXT Lyrics file as well.
