Chapter 10 Jobs 227

CHAPTER 10

Some jobs are used to enter new settings, while other are used to execute operations.

Note that most setting changes become effective immediately—even if you use

[CANCEL] to escape from the job. To execute an operation, however, you must al-

ways press [OK]. Details are provided in the procedures below.

Note that you can switch from one job to another at any time by pressing another job

group selector or job selector. The SU700 will immediately display the top screen for

the new job you have selected.

So long as power remains on, the SU700 will remember “job flow” selections that

have no effect on actual operation, and will recall these the next time you run the job.

For example, if you open the DISK | LOAD job and then select LOAD SAMPLE at the

first level, the SU700 remembers this selection even if you press [CANCEL]. The next

time you open this job the screen automatically begins by displaying LOAD SAMPLE.

While you are working at a job screen, the SU700 disables use of all buttons

other than (a) the job group selectors and job selectors, (b) the [OK] and [CAN-

CEL] buttons, and (c) any controls directly related to the job screen you are

working at. Pad-function selectors, knob-function buttons, and sequencer buttons

remained disabled for normal use until you terminate the job and return to the main

screen.

Be sure to save important data to disk to avoid inadvertent data loss. Remember that

the SU700 loses almost all information-including many job settings-when you switch

power off.

10.3 Job Explanations

10.3.1 SONG Group

You use song jobs to assign a name to the current song, to copy the current song into

another song number, to initialize a selected song, and to set the MTC (MIDI Time

Code) offset for the current song.

What The Jobs Do

NAME Edits the name of the current song.

COPY Copies song from the current song number into another

song number.

INIT Deletes song data from the selected song number, and re-

turns the song’s name and settings to their defaults.

MTC OFFSET Sets the MIDI Time Code offset for the current song.
