Event chase
Event Chase is a function that rapidly plays back the speci-
fied types of event when a song, pattern, or phrase is played
back from the middle or when it is rewound or fast-forwarded.
This ensures that voice selections and pitch changes etc. will
be correct for the location when playback begins.
If a song or phrase which uses program changes or pitch bend
changes is played back from the middle or is rewound or fast-
forwarded, the playback may use unexpected voices or the
wrong pitch. Such problems can occur if the section of the
song or phrase that was skipped over contains events such as
program changes or pitch bends.
If the Event Chase function is used, the specified type(s) of
event will be played back at high speed from the beginning
whenever a song or phrase is played back from the middle.
This will mean that a certain length of time may elapse from
the moment the Start command is given until playback actu-
ally begins, or that the rewind/fast-forward speed will be
slower.
If Event Chase is set to ALL, large amounts of MIDI data will
be transmitted from the MIDI OUT connector, which can cause
MIDI errors to occur on the external MIDI device that is re-
ceiving this data.
Settings :
OFF Event Chase will not be performed.
PC Program Change events.
PC, PB, CTRL Program Change, Pitch Bend, and Control
Change events.
ALL All events other than notes.
System exclusive interval time
When system exclusive data (bulk data) recorded in a sequence
track is played back, an interval of the duration specified by
this setting will be inserted between each 1 KB (kilobyte) of
data.
When bulk data that was recorded is re-transmitted to an ex-
ternal MIDI device, limitations of the receiving device's bulk
data processing power may result in MIDI errors. By setting
an appropriate Interval Time, you can transmit bulk data at a
rate that the receiving device is able to process.
In sequence tracks, each unit of system exclusive data is re-
corded in a single location of time. However when this data is
played back, the Interval Time function will insert a delay
between each 1 KB of data. The delay is specified in units of
100 ms (1/10 second).
If MIDI errors occur on the receiving device, increase the In-
terval Time setting and try transmitting the data again.
