appendix of this manual.

Coda: The final part of a musical song. For example, when a

singer finishes off a song with a few bars which are neither

the verse nor the chorus, but makes it clear that the song is

coming to an end. The singer is then said to be adding a

“coda”.

mal acoustic piano sustain pedal on the CD20/30 (and nor-

mally in other MIDI instruments too).

Dynamic: This is the intensity with which a note is played; as

on a normal acoustic piano, the stronger you press down the

keys, the more intense the sound will be.

which displays the CD20/30 messages for the musician. The

display is used to edit MIDI and DISK and to create Prog.Styles

and Songs.
