5.14 Lyrics Editor
The LYRICS EDITOR function lets you input or modify lyrics in your MIDI
files.
With the LYRICS EDITOR you can connect lyrics events, input with a personal
computer keyboard, connected through the appropriate socket, to any song,
MIDI or audio, present on the hard disk of Megabeat Pro .
You can also load from floppy, “.TXT” files on hard disk and connect them to a
MIDI/audio file already present on Megabeat Pro hard disk.
With the EXTRACT function you can then extract the words from a MIDI +
LYRICS type song present on Megabeat Pro hard disk to modify the lyrics and
then re-save them with the file.
In the current Megabeat Pro operating system version the only MIDI files
from which you can extract the lyrics are ”.KAR” files (with the other MIDI
files containing lyrics listed in paragraph 4.1.1 the lyrics editing operation is not
yet possible, i.e. only the visualization of lyrics on Megabeat Pro display is
possible but you cannot extract or modify them).
