Song Mode and the Song Editor
Song Editor: The TRACK Page
13-19
FX Track
The FX Track parameter determines which track’s Program will provide the Aux FX Chains for
the song (used by all MIDI channels, see the AUX1 and AUX2 pages). The program in the
selected FX Track determines the Aux Chains of the current song (unless an override chain is
selected). See “Song Mode: The FX Pages” on page 13-11 for details on Song Mode FX.
MidiDst
The MIDI data on each track has a destination assignment selectable with the MidiDest
parameter. There are four possible indicators:
L = Local. The track’s MIDI data will be transmitted locally only, to the Forte SE’s internal sound
generator. None of the track’s MIDI data will be sent to the USB or MIDI Out port.
M = MIDI. The track’s MIDI data will be transmitted only to the MIDI Out.
U = USB MIDI. The track’s MIDI data will be transmitted only to the USB port.
––– = None.
Pairs and groups of the above letters indicate that MIDI is being sent to each letter’s
corresponding destination.
