Viewing only specific performance data

Phrase tracks or Patterns contain much performance data,

and so are difficult to view on the display. To effectively

cope with this, you can select the data types to appear on the

display. By limiting the display to show just the type of

MIDI message you’re interested in, you’ll be able to find the

MIDI message more efficiently.

❶ Make sure that the Microscope display (SEQ/Micro) is

up.

❷ Press [F6] (View) to call up the View Select display

(SEQ/Micro).

❸ Move the cursor to “Channel” and select the MIDI

channel whose data you wish to view.

To view performance data of all MIDI channels, set this

parameter to ALL. To view the data of a specific MIDI chan-

nel, specify that channel using numbers 1–16.

❹ Move the cursor to each type of data and set it ON

(when viewing that data) or OFF (when not viewing

that data). To view all performance data, press [F1]

(All On).

When viewing only Note messages, press [F2] (Note).

When you wish to view only one specific type of data, move

the cursor to that data and press [F3].

✳ When the cursor is at “Channel” or “Note,” it is not

possible to press [F3].

❺ After you finish settings, press [EXIT] to return to the

Microscope display (SEQ/Micro).

Modifying performance data recorded in a

Phrase track/Pattern

You can modify the parameters of performance data record-

ed in a Phase track or Pattern. However message type can-

not be changed, such as changing a Control Change message

into a Pitch Bend message.

✳ For details of performance data, refer to “Performance

data handled by Phrase tracks/Patterns” (p.144).

✳ Tune Request has no parameter so it cannot be modi-

fied.

❶ Make sure that the Microscope display (SEQ/Micro) is

up.

❷ Select the Phrase track or Pattern whose data you want

to modify.

To select a Phrase track, press TRACK/PART [1]–[16].

To select a Pattern, press [PATTERN] to open the Pattern

Select window and specify the Pattern number.

❸ Press [u] or [d] to move “>” to the data to be modi-

fied.

❹ Press [l] or [r] to move the cursor to the parameter to

be modified, then specify the desired value.

✳ The note number (note name) of the Note or

Polyphonic Aftertouch data can be changed by press-

ing a key on the XP-80’s keyboard to specify the note

number. You can also press a numeric key while hold-

ing down [SHIFT] to specify a note name (C–B) or an

accidental mark (#, b).

✳ To modify the OnV (On Velocity) or OfV (Off Velocity)

value of the Note data, you can also press a key on the

XP-80’s keyboard.

✳ When modifying System Exclusive messages, the pro-

cedure is slightly different. Follow the procedure

below:

...........................................................................................................

❶ Press [u] or [d] to move “>” to the System Exclusive

message to be modified.

❷ Press [r] to move the cursor to the data to be modi-

fied.

The Sys.Excl Edit display (SEQ/Micro) will appear.

By holding down [SHIFT] while you press [l], the cursor

can be moved right back to the beginning of data.

When moving the cursor to F7, press [r ] while holding

down [SHIFT].

✳ As F0 cannot be changed, the cursor will not move to

this position. F7 also cannot be deleted.

❸ Modify the value.

To enter A–F, hold down “SHIFT” and press [0]–[5].

To insert a new value between F0:–:F7, move the cursor to

the desired location, and press [F1] (Insert). An initial value

of 00 will be inserted. Modify this to your desired value.

To delete a value, move the cursor to the location of the data

to be deleted, and press [F2] (Delete).

❹ When you finish modifying the message, press [F6]

(OK) to finalize the System Exclusive message value.

When the value is finalized, “COMPLETE” will appear just

for a moment before the Microscope display (SEQ/Micro)

returns.

To cancel System Exclusive message editing and return to

Microscope display (SEQ/Micro), press [EXIT]. If the cursor

is at the beginning of a System Exclusive message, you can

also cancel editing by pressing [l].

✳ If the message is a Roland Type IV System Exclusive

message, the XP-80 will automatically calculate the

check sum when you finalize values. If you don’t care

for this, press [F3] (Chk Sum) to open the window and

set “Auto Calculate Check Sum” OFF.
