The Delete Function
While in the edit mode, the delete function can be used to
delete parts from a song program. For example, in the IN-
SERT function description above, we inserted a new part
between parts 2 and 3 in a 4-part program, leaving us with
original parts 1 and 2, new part 3, and original parts 4 and 5.
To delete the part we inserted (currently part 31, simply
locate part 3 using the –1/NO and +1/YES keys and press
the DELETE button. The LCD panel will respond with
“DELETE PART 003?”. If the +1/YES button is then
pressed, part 3 will be deleted and parts 4 and 5 will be
re-written into parts 3 and 4, leaving us with our 4 original
parts. Editing can now continue as normal. Press –1/NO in
response to the “DELETE PART 003?” message to cancel
the delete mode.

Repeats
The repeat function can save a considerable amount of
programming time by making it possible to repeat any part
or group of parts up to 100 times. The repeat function is
used in the edit mode. Suppose, for example, we want to
repeat part 3 of our 4-part song 3 times (this means part 3
would be played a total of 4 times—1 original and 3 repeats).
Locate part 3 using the –1/NO and +1/YES buttons and
press the REPEAT button. This does the equivalent of enter-
ing a repeat end sign ( ) immediately after part 3–that is,
part 3 will be the last part of the repeated segment. The LCD
panel will respond with “GO TO PART ***?”. The number
of the part which is to be the first part of the repeated seg-
ment is then entered via the white number buttons–in this
case, since we only intend to repeat part 3, enter a “3”.
We could repeat bars 1, 2, and 3, for example, by entering
a “1” instead of a “3” (“GO TO PART 001”). Press the
REPEAT button again and you will be prompted for the
number of repeats: “REP COUNTS **?”. Enter the desired
number of repeats via the white number buttons-in this
case “3”. Press the REPEAT button again to complete the
repeat entry procedure. Now editing can continue as normal.
Note that if you now increment through the parts, a “REPT
for 03 to 003” message will appear between parts 3 and 4,
indicating that part 3 will be repeated 3 times. Repeats can
be deleted in the same way as parts by locating this message
and using the delete function (See “The Delete Function”,
a b o v e ) .
