track. In this function, only the events

from the source track are copied- no

time signature or tempo data is copied. Unlike the COPY ALL TRACKS

function which inserts the copied data into the sequence, increasing the

overall length, this form of the copy function either replaces the existing

events or merges with the existing events, without adding any additional

bars. Therefore, in this function, the overall length is unchanged after the

copy. Common uses of this function are:

• Copying one track to another

• Merging (bouncing) two tracks together

• Shifting a track earlier or later in increments as small as one clock

To use this function, select option 6 from the EDIT screen, and the

following screen will be displayed:

A description of the on-screen fields follows:

• The SEQUENCE field (the COPY/MERGE A TRACK FROM section):

This is the sequence from which the data will be copied. The active

sequence number is automatically inserted here when this screen is entered.

• The TRACK field (the COPY/MERGE A TRACK FROM section):

This is the track from which the data will be copied. The active track is

automatically inserted here when this screen is entered.

• The FROM and TO fields:

These fields are used to set the region of the track which will be copied

from, starting at the clock location specified in the FROM field and

including all data up to but not including the clock specified in the TO field.

These are BAR.BEAT.CLOCK type fields, enabling you to specify the

region in units as small as one clock.

• The SEQUENCE field (the COPY/MERGE A TRACK TO section):

This is the sequence to be copied into. The active sequence number is

automatically inserted here when this screen is entered.

• The TRACK field (the COPY/MERGE A TRACK TO section):

This is the track to be copied into. The active track number is

automatically inserted here when this screen is entered.
