Notes concerning song playback
Songs do not actually contain the musical data of the patterns;
they contain only the order in which the patterns are to be
played back. This means that if you modify a pattern that has
been registered in a song, the playback of the song will also be
affected. If you delete all of the musical data of the pattern,
playback will stop at the moment that pattern is selected.
