TRK (Phrase tracks)

Shows the status of Phrase tracks.

Phrase tracks with performance data recorded are displayed

with “o,” and those not containing performance data with “-

.” The Phrase tracks that contain performance data but that

are not to be played back are displayed in grey.

PART

This information appears when Performance mode is select-

ed. The Part that will be played from the keyboard (current

Part) is displayed with “o,” and those Parts not to be played

with “_.” If a Layer Performance is selected, Parts with the

Local Switch parameter (PERFORM/MIDI/Part MIDI) set

ON are indicated with “o,” and all such Parts will be played

from the keyboard.

If Patch mode or Rhythm Set mode is selected, “Patch

Mode” or “Rhythm Mode” will appear instead.

Patch/Rhythm Set

The name of the Patch or Rhythm Set assigned to the current

Part will be displayed in parentheses ( ). When changing the

Patch or Rhythm Set, set new group and number. This also

applies when Patch mode or Rhythm Set mode is selected.

Playing back a song directly from disk

(Quick Play)

The XP-80 will play back songs from disk directly without

first loading them into internal memory. This is the Quick

Play function.

The Quick Play function can be used for MRC Pro songs

(extension: .SVQ) and Standard MIDI Files (extension:

.MID).

❶ Insert the disk with the song into the disk drive.

❷ Press [SEQUENCER] to call up the Play display

(SEQ(Song)).

✳ If the Play display (SEQ(Pattern)) appears, press

[SEQUENCER] again or press [EXIT] or [PATTERN].

❸ Move the cursor to the song number and select the

number of the song you wish to play back.

The number and name of the selected song will be boxed,

which indicates song selection has yet to be finalized.

❹ Press [ENTER] to finalize the song.

The box around the song number and song name will disap-

pear to show that the song selection has been finalized.

❺ Press [STOP/PLAY] to begin playback.

When the song ends, playback will stop automatically. To

interrupt playback, press [STOP/PLAY].

✳ There may be a slight delay before playback starts – if

setup data is included at the song’s beginning or if the

song uses the RPS function.

✳ If you have interrupted song playback, “+” may be dis-

played at the right of the measure number. This indi-

cates that the song is stopped in mid measure.

✳ If you press [STOP/PLAY] instead of [ENTER] in step

4 above, playback will begin immediately.

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

To view the list of songs that can be quick played, you open

the Song List window. Up to seven songs can be displayed

in alphabetical order at one time. This allows you to quickly

select the desired song.

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

❷ Press [F6] (List) to open the Song List window.

The cursor is positioned at the song currently selected.

❸ Press [u], [d], [INC] or [DEC] or turn the VALUE dial

to select the desired song. You can also select the song

by specifying its song number with the numeric keys.

As the song entry has not yet been finalized, the song num-

ber and file name will be boxed.

✳ A u mark or d mark appearing at the display upper

left or lower left shows there are more songs which

don’t appear on current display page.

✳ To return the cursor to the currently selected song,

press [EXIT]. Pressing [EXIT] again will close the Song

List window.

❹ Press [F6] (Select) or [ENTER] to finalize the song

entry.

The song entry will be finalized and the Song List window

will be closed. Pressing [STOP/PLAY] instead will begin the

playback immediately.

Fast-forwarding or ‘rewinding’ a song

You can fast-forward or ‘rewind’ a song from stop as well as

in playback.

Press [FWD] to fast-forward the song, and press [BWD] to

‘rewind’ it. To continuously fast-forward or ‘rewind’ the

song, keep on pressing the respective button.

If you hold down [FWD] as you press [BWD], the song will

fast-forward at a faster speed. Pressing [FWD] while holding

down [BWD] will ‘rewind’ a song faster.

To instantly go to the end of the song, press [FWD] while

holding down [SHIFT]. Pressing [BWD] while holding down

[SHIFT] moves you right back to the beginning of the

song.Executing any of these operations while the song plays

back will interrupt playback.

If you move the cursor to “M” and specify the measure num-

ber with numeric keys, you will go right to the specified

measure.

✳ Fast-forwarding or ‘rewinding’ a song during quick

play may take a little time.
