Editing Lyrics
Your G-70 contains functions that allow you to add Lyrics to Standard MIDI Files that do not contain them. It is also pos-
sible to edit the Lyrics data of Standard MIDI Files that conform to the Tune 1000 format (as well as other Lyrics for-
mats).
This may come in handy when you keep forgetting the words of a song you wish to use for your performances and want
them to be included in the song file.

This may come in handy when you keep forgetting the words of a song you wish to use for your performances and want

The G-70 only allows you to link (“synchronize”) Lyrics
data to the music data of the loaded Standard MIDI File.
The text data proper must be entered on a Windows-
compatible PC (or a Mac and saved as .TXT data for Win-
dows). See right for the supported characters.

associate with a given song.

taking care to type a return after every line or word
you wish to synchronize separately. The synchroniza-
tion function (see below) always works with entire
lines of text (i.e. until the following return). In any
case, no line should contain more than 28 characters.
