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

to set this value. RANGE: 0–31.

NOTE:

The Volume Change function can NOT alter the volume of any note beyond the

RX17’s Instrument Level range (0–31).

The Volume 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.

Volume 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 Volume Change will create a new Part, and move all subsequent parts forward.

3.2.6 JOB 1: INITIAL TEMPO

This function lets you set the exact playback tempo for a Song that you have already

edited. This lets you avoid the need for manually changing tempos between playback

of Songs. Of course, any Tempo Change commands you have included in the Song will

function (within the limits of the RX17’s tempo range) and you can also vary the Tempo

manually at any time.

1. After selecting a Song and entering Edit Song, press JOB.

3. To set the Initial Tempo value, press TEMPO

4. Asterisks indicate that the Initial Tempo has not yet been set. If it has been set, the

setting will appear on the LCD. Use the –1 NO and +1 YES keys, or the TEMPO

slider, to set the Initial Tempo.

Press

START

to return to Edit Song (if you wish to continue editing the Song) or press

SONG or STOP/CONTINUE to exit Edit Song.

3.2.7 JOB 2: SEARCH PART

This function lets you instantly locate any Part in a Song. This is useful and time-saving

as it allows you to locate any point in the Song for editing (this can be compared to tape

transport memory devices in recording studios, which allow you to “punch in” at a

preselected point in a recording).

3.2.8 JOB 3: COPY PART

1. After selecting a Song and entering Edit Song, press JOB.

2. Use the key (or hold JOB and press 2) to move the cursor to “2”.

3. Use the Numeric Key Pad to enter a three-digit Part number (RANGE: 001–999).

Then press +1 YES. The LCD will immediately show the selected Part, and the

Pattern or other data contained there. Example: Part 006; Pattern 23.

You can now continue editing from this point.

This function lets you choose a Part or group of Parts, and copy them to another location

in a Song, or to the end of the Song. This saves time if you have programmed the Parts

for a verse, and want to repeat the same verse later in a Song. You can copy the entire

verse in one operation, instead of having to copy each individual Part.

For example, suppose in this short 5-Part Song, you want to copy Parts 2 and 3 onto

the end of the Song.

BEFORE COPYING

AFTER COPYING

2. You can now use the -1 NO and +1 YES keys to turn the Initial Tempo function Off

or On respectively.
