Editing In The Multi Mode - Yamaha MU100 Owner's Manual

Editing in the Multi Mode

Editing in the Multi Mode
This section takes you step-by-step through an example editing session in
the Multi mode. The operations and techniques you learn here enable you to
perform any editing operation in the Multi mode.
There are two separate sections of the Multi mode that are devoted to
editing: the Single/All Part controls, and the Edit menus.
In this section, you'll learn how to:
Select a Part for editing.
Use the Single Part controls — to change the MIDI channel of a Part, and
change its Volume and Pan settings.
Use the Edit menu parameters — to change the filter and EG (Envelope
Generator) settings of a Part.
Use the Drum Setup controls — to edit the Part settings for a drum Voice.
Hints
• Editing Parts, not Voices
It is important to remember that in editing you are not changing the Voice itself,
but rather the Part the Voice is assigned to. This means that when you change the
Voice of the Part, the edited settings apply to the new voice, whether they're
appropriate or not.
• Saving your edits
Keep in mind that any edits you make in the Multi mode are automatically saved
as the power-on defaults. In other words, the next time you turn on the power, the
previous condition of all Parts is automatically recalled. If you want to save one
"set" of edits (for example, for use with a specific song) before creating another
set, you must first save the current setup to a sequencer or MIDI data filer. (For
details, see page 148.)
