Makeup Tools (Style and SMF)
Backing Module BK-7m

NOTE
The changes you make using the procedure described
above can be “burned” into the Music Style song file using
the “Freeze Data” command (see p. 81). Doing so will allow
you to hear those changes on any sequencer (software)
you use. Changes you don’t “freeze” are nevertheless stored
when you save the edited Music Style song file—but only
the BK-7m can read them.
Freeze Data
To commit your settings, use [MENU] button ‰ “Makeup
Tools” ‰ “Freeze Data”.
Before saving your “made-up” song to a USB memory,
you can (but you don’t have to) “commit” your changes,
thereby turning them into “regular” Music Style or song
data.
This may come in handy if you also want to play back
your new Music Style song version on another arranger
instrument, sequencer or your computer. This operation
is unnecessary for files you only want to use with the
BK-7m or one of the models mentioned above.
Saving your new Music Style or song (SMF)
version
1.
If you are happy with your changes and wish
to preserve them, select the “Save” parame-
ter.
The display shows the location of the file you loaded
and subsequently edited.
NOTE
Even Music Styles or songs for which you did not perform
the “Freeze Data” command need to be saved using this
procedure if you want to keep the changes.
2.
Use the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select a dif-
ferent location if you do not want to over-
write the original version.
3.
Press the [WRITE] button (it flashes).
The display changes to:
4.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
the desired character.
5.
Press the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to confirm
your selection (the cursor changes to an
underscore).
6.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] to select the
character position you want to change, then
press the dial.
7.
Repeat steps (4)~(6) to complete the name.
8.
Press the [WRITE] button to confirm your
desire to save the song.
The display briefly confirms the operation and then
returns to the “Style Makeup Tools” or “Song Makeup
Tools” page.
If the USB memory already contains a Music Style or
song file of that name, you will be asked whether you
want to overwrite it:
In this case, select “YES” using the [CURSOR÷VALUE]
dial to replace the old file with the new one (the old
file will be lost).
Otherwise, select “NO” to return to the “Save” page
and enter a different name.
