want to make a copy of is selected.
Then,

button . . .
3. Press Enter•Yes
No
The display will read PIANO COPIED. Instrument•Sequence Track 4 now contains a copy of
the piano in Instrument•Sequence Track 1. You can now record on this track just as you would
any other. Keys, controllers, etc. recorded on the new track will be independent from any
recorded on Instrument•Sequence Track 1. You can Solo, Mute, MIX and PAN the new track
independently from the original. The new track can be assigned to its own MULTI-IN MIDI
CHANNEL and OUT bus. The two tracks simply “point to” the same sound. You can make as
many copies of an instrument as you want. Instrument copies will not take up much additional
memory, because they contain only “pointers” to the original sound.
Additional Notes
• When you select an Instrument•Sequence Track location that contains a copy, it looks just
like the original — the name and all its instrument parameters will be the same. In LOAD
mode you can adjust the volume of a copied instrument, select, deselect and stack it as you
would any instrument.
• These copied instruments are temporary things — the song or sequence doesn’t know that it’s
playing a copy (in fact the song or sequence never knows what instruments are loaded into
which locations). Any copied instruments will be forgotten when the ASR-10 is turned off
unless you save the contents of memory as a bank (using the SAVE BANK command on the
Command/Instrument page). When you load a bank, the ASR-10 recreates any copied
instruments that were there when the bank was saved.
• You cannot edit the instrument, layer, or wavesample parameters of the copy independently.
Any parameter changes made to the copy will affect the original, and vice-versa.
• If you load a new instrument into the Instrument•Sequence Track location that contains the
original instrument, any copies of that instrument will be automatically deleted from memory.

Note: When using the Version 2 O.S., the processing of sequencer editing may take a little
longer than when using previous O.S. Versions. This is because the ASR-10 ensures the
accurate processing of information, and needs to prepare Audio Tracks with each edit.
