Editing a MIDI Recording

[MCammuso]

I recorded a song and was a bit slow on the fill in so I have a measure I'd like to delete. I've looked in the reference manual and it has a lot of information on modifying or deleting events but not how to simply delete an unwanted measure. Am I missing something?

You can't 'delete' a measure as such.

What you can do is set the recording mode to punch in / punch out with the rogue measure as the start and end. Arm the channels which have the content you want to 'delete' and start recording. Then just don't play anything when it gets to that point in the midi. This will effectively remove whatever was there before.

[MCammuso]

Thanks. I'll give that a try. But won't that leave the rogue measure there but with just no sound? I'm thinking that I'll probably have to re-record my song from that point on if the punch in/punch out doesn't do what I need.

[DerekA]

Ah, if you want to chop a measure it out and throw it away, I do not think you can do that on the keyboard itself. You'd need to use a program on a computer.

[Lacko]

You can delete all events (separately) from that measure. Then this measure simply dismisses from midi song.

I have done quite a lot of midi modifying, on SX900 and Pa4X and have found it much easier, as been said, to go to a computer program such as GNMIDI or Audacity for anything more than simple mutes etc.

I use Audacity quite a lot, it's easy to use and free.
