G-70 Music Workstation

Obviously, if you record a song with Arranger backing, 
the respective Style parts (ADR, ABS, etc.) are recorded 
onto the tracks that are assigned to their MIDI chan-
nels.

There is yet another track, called “MASTER”, that is used 
for recording the time signature, the tempo, as well as 
general SysEx data.

Let us first record a song from scratch using the 
16-track sequencer. If you already played back a song 
since switching on the G-70, the song RAM memory 
already contains data we need to erase. (Even if the 
G-70’s song RAM memory is still empty, using the INI-
TIALIZE SONG function would be a good idea.) 

(1) Press the RECORDER [16-TRACK¥SEQUENCER] but-

ton.

(2) Press the [INITIALIZE¥SONG] field.

(3) If you want the G-70 to set most parameters for 

you, press one of the TEMPLATES fields.
