Monitoring Phrase track data and settings

You can check whether each Phrase track contains data or

not and whether it plays back or is muted, or modify assign-

ment settings. The output destination for each Phrase track’s

data can also be specified.

Output (Phrase track output assign)

Specifies the output destination of data recorded on each

Phrase track.

INT: The data will be transmitted to the XP-80’s internal

sound source.

MIDI: The data will be transmitted to external MIDI devices

via the MIDI OUT.

BOTH: The data will be transmitted to both of the above des-

tinations.

Status (Phrase track status)

Specifies whether each Phrase track will play back (PLAY) or

be muted (MUTE). A Phrase track containing no data will be

indicated as “EMPTY.”

✳ Selecting PLAY or MUTE by pressing TRACK/PART

[1]–[16] on the Play display (SEQ(Song)) will also

change this setting.

✳ If the display indicates “EMPTY,” the track cannot

PLAY or MUTE.

Track Monitor

Displays the MIDI channel (Ch) on which each Phrase track

or Pattern contains data and if it contains or does not contain

any System Exclusive (Ex) or Pattern Call messages (P). A

“*” symbol indicates data exists and a “-” symbol indicates

data does not exist.

✳ “Now Playing” will appear when a song is playing

back. It is not possible to monitor a Phrase track at that

time.

❶ Make sure that the Play display (SEQ(Song)) is up.

❷ Move the cursor to the song number and select the

song in which you want to monitor each Phrase track.

❸ Press [F1] (Setup).

❹ Press [F3] (TrkInfo) to call up the Track Information

display (SEQ/Setup).

✳ If you have selected a song previously saved to disk in

step 2, a window asks “This Song is not Internal Song.

Load anyway?” If you want to erase the song from the

internal memory and load the new song, press [F5]

(OK). If you decide not to erase the song from the

internal memory, press [F6] (Cancel).

❺ To change the Phrase track being displayed, press the

appropriate button from TRACK/PART [1]–[16].

To display a Pattern, press [PATTERN] and input the

Pattern number.

❻ Move the cursor to “Output” and specify the data out-

put destination.

❼ Move the cursor to “Status” and set PLAY or MUTE.

❽ Use Track Monitor to check data recorded on each

Phrase track or Pattern.

❾ After you finish making settings for each Phrase track/

Pattern and checking it, press [EXIT] to return to the

Play display (SEQ(Song)).

Locate function

Convenient Locate positions can be recorded to indicate any

position in a song or Pattern. In general, a song position is

referred to by a “measure-beat-clock” and the corresponding

time “hour:minute:second:frame” will also be displayed.

This lets you specify the same position regardless of the

locate method you use. Selecting a Locate position that has

been recorded will take you right to that position during

playback. Recording Locate positions is a convenient way to

specify a track editing area, Loop points, and an auto punch-

in recording area.

✳ The Locate function cannot be used when a song

stored on disk is selected, or the current display has no

indication of measure number or “measure-beat-

clock.”

✳ If the song’s time signature and the Pattern’s time sig-

nature (Pattern beat) differ from each other, selecting

the same Locate position will result in different posi-

tions in the song and Pattern.

✳ Refer to page 122, page 120 and page 108 for using

Locate positions to respectively specify the track edit-

ing area, Loop points, and auto punch-in recording

area.
