Change of an active track


If F4 (Act.Trk) button is pressed, the display of "ACTIVE" will blink and it will become the change mode of an active track.
An active track will be changed if a pad is hit. (If F4 (Act.Trk) button is pressed once again, it will return to the mode of track mute.)
Since PAD1-64 correspond to TRACK 1-64, for example, if PAD6 is hit an active track will change to TRACK 6.
Moreover, if PAD6 of BANK-B is hit, it will change to TRACK 21.

Notes
An active track can be changed even if it turns a DATA wheel, pressing the [MODE] button.
Moreover, an active track will also be changed, if a track is chosen when cursor is in the group field.
