Press

+1 YES

to enter a begin Repeat command. The LCD will automatically move

to the next Part. Continue editing (entering Patterns and other data) and when you

reach the point at which an End repeat command is needed (for example, Part 5)

use the key to select :ll, the symbol for an End repeat command.

The LCD will display “01”–the default number of repeats. If only one repeat is

needed, you can now press +1 YES to continue editing the Song.

To enter a different number of repeats, use the Numeric Key Pad, entering a two-digit

number (for example, 02). Range: 01–99.

You can now continue editing by pressing +1 YES, or press SONG or STOP/

CONTINUE to exit Edit Song.

Repeats are often entered AFTER all the Pattern numbers have been entered for a

Song. See 3.2.10 INSERT PART for how to insert data into a Song. Remember that a

Repeat will create a new Part, and move all subsequent Parts forward.

3.2.4 ENTERING TEMPO CHANGES

This function allows you to enter a gradual change of tempo in a Song. The tempo can

increase (accelerando) or decrease (ritardando). You can set the overall range of the

Tempo Change, and the duration of the change. If you set the duration at zero, an instant

Tempo Change will occur.

As the operation is virtually identical for both types of Tempo Change, we’ll describe

Accelerando only. The only difference is that you move the brackets to either “accel” or

“rit”, and the Tempo Change value is shown as a positive or a negative number

respectively.

NOTE: When you play a Song that contains a Tempo Change, the final tempo of the

Song will be different from the initial tempo. If you have not set an Initial Tempo for a

Song, and you immediately play the Song again, it will begin playback at the new tempo.

Therefore, it is recommended that you always set the Initial tempo for a Song. See 3.2.6

INITIAL TEMPO.

1. After selecting a Song and entering Edit Song, press to move the brackets to

“accel”.

2. The cursor will be flashing at the Tempo Change value. Use the Numeric Key Pad

to set this value. RANGE: 0–99 quarter-notes/minute.

NOTE:

The Tempo Change function can NOT alter the tempo beyond the RX17’s tempo

range (40–250 quarter-notes/minute).

3. Press +1 YES to move the cursor to the Tempo Change duration position, and use

the Numeric Key Pad to enter the Tempo Change duration. Range: 0–99 quarter-

notes.

You can use the –1 NO and +1 YES keys to move the cursor back and forth,

to reset the two Tempo Change parameters, as needed.

4. The Tempo Change is now set, and you can press +1 YES to move on to the next

Part and continue editing, or press SONG or STOP/CONTINUE to exit Edit Song.

Tempo Changes are often entered AFTER all the Pattern numbers have been entered

for a Song. See 3.2.10 INSERT PART for how to insert data into a Song. Remember

that a Tempo Change will create a new Part, and move all subsequent Parts forward.

3.2.5 ENTERING VOLUME CHANGES

This function allows you to enter a change of volume in a Song. The volume can increase

or decrease, and you can set the range of the Volume Change.

As the operation is virtually identical for both types of Volume Change, we’ll describe a

“vol+” (crescendo) operation only. The only difference is that you move the brackets to

either “vol+” or “vol–” and the Volume Change value is shown as a positive number or

a negative number respectively.

“vol+”.

1. After selecting a Song and entering Edit Song, press to move the brackets to

1 2 ... 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 ... 46 47
