Creating and playing a Cue List<br />

A cue list allows you to play multiple songs in succession.<br />

For example you can create a separate song for each portion<br />

(introduction, melody A, melody B, chorus, and ending)<br />

of a composition, and use the cue list to specify the<br />

order of each portion and the number of times that it will<br />

be repeated to complete the song. If you want to change<br />

the structure of the song, the cue list lets you do so in an<br />

efficient way.<br />

You can also use this as a jukebox function that will playback<br />

completed songs in the order you specify.<br />

Cue List<br />

Step Song Repeat<br />

01 S000: Intro 02<br />

02 S001: A 02<br />

03 S002: B 01<br />

04 S003: Chorus 02<br />

05 S001: A 02<br />

06 S002: B 01<br />

07 S003: Chorus 02<br />

08 S001: A (Solo) 01<br />

09 S003: Chorus 03<br />

10 S004: Ending 02<br />

1. Creating a cue list<br />

Intro Intro A A B Chorus<br />

Chorus A A B Chorus Chorus<br />

A(Solo) Chorus Chorus Chorus Ending Ending<br />

Each unit in a cue list is called a “step,” and each step contains<br />

a song number and the number of repeats.<br />

Here we will use a cue list to combine the previously-created<br />

songs S000: INTRO, S001: VERSE, and S002: CHO-<br />

RUS.<br />

1 Select Sequencer P1: Cue List.<br />

With the default settings, song S000 will be selected for<br />

“Step” 01, and End will be selected for “Step” 02.<br />

2 Add a song to the Step area.<br />

Select the “Song” for Step 02, and press the Insert<br />

button. A song will be added to step 02. Use the<br />

VALUE controller to select S001: VERSE.<br />

In the same way, select the Step 03 “Song,” and press<br />

the Insert button to add a song to Step 03. Set this to<br />

S002: CHORUS.<br />

If you press Cut button, the selected step will be<br />

deleted. If you press the Insert button, the deleted step<br />

will be inserted.<br />

If you press the Copy button, the selected step will be<br />

copied. If you press the Insert button, the copied step<br />

will be inserted.<br />

3 Set the last step to End.<br />

If you set this to Continue to Step01, the cue list will<br />

play back repeatedly.<br />

4 In “Repeat,” specify the number of times that the<br />

song for that step will be repeated. For this example,<br />

set Step 02 S001: VERSE to 02.<br />

5 Specify whether effect settings will also be switched<br />

when the song at each step is played back. If you<br />

want to effect settings to change, check the “FX”<br />

check box.<br />

For this example, check the “FX” check box for Step 01,<br />

which loads the effects.<br />

6 To play back at the tempo that was specified for each<br />

song, set “Tempo Mode” to Auto.<br />

If this is set to Manu (Manual), playback will use the<br />

tempo specified by “ =”.<br />

7 When you press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP]<br />

key, playback will begin from the step that is specified<br />

as the “Current Step.”<br />

• “Step”: The arrow will indicate the currently playing<br />

step. indicates the currently selected “Step.” If you<br />

set “Current Step” while stopped, the display will<br />

change.<br />

• “M****”: Indicates the starting measure of that step.<br />

• “Meter”: Indicates the currently-playing time signature.<br />

This cannot be changed.<br />

• The name of a cue list can be specified by the “Rename<br />

Cue List” page menu command.<br />

• When you play the keyboard, the program of the track<br />

selected by “Track Select” will sound. If a different<br />

program is selected for each song, the program specified<br />

for the currently playing song will sound.<br />

● What to do when playing back a cue list and the<br />

songs do not transition smoothly<br />

If the effect settings differ between songs, and depending<br />

on the playback data within the song, there may be cases<br />

in which there is a time lag between songs during playback.<br />

Also, the playback data at the transition between<br />

songs may not play at the correct timing. In such cases,<br />

use “Convert to Song” to convert the cue list into a single<br />

song. When you play back this song, there will be no time<br />

lag at the transition, and the data will play at the correct<br />

timing.<br />

If the effect settings differ between songs, and you want to<br />

smooth the transition between songs, check “FX” for Step<br />

01. This way, the effect settings will be made before playback<br />

begins, and there will be no time lag when cue list<br />
