1. The Effect of Changes

Any adjustments made to a song will be saved with the current song in the current Playlist. Other copies of the same song in the current Playlist or other Playlists will not be affected. However, changes to the master playlist of a Book become permanent. They will stay with the song the next time it is added to another Playlist. (Although songs added to a Playlist before the Book's Playlist was changed will not be affected.)

None of the changes actually alter the song itself. Instead, they affect the playback of the song. ittyMIDI Player does not perform any editing of songs on the handheld.

2. What can be Changed?

Even though most MIDI files sound so good that is impossible to improve upon them (NOT!), ittyMIDI Player allows the user to alter many aspects of the song.

On the Volume screen, you will find a mixer to change the volume of each track, as well as buttons to mute each track. The Tempo/Pitch screen allows you to speed up or slow down a song and change its key.

Under the Options menu, Program Mapping allows for changes to the instrumentation of the song. Also in Options, Play Mode lets you select only the specific measures of the song you want to play.

The pitch for each channel can also be changed.

In addition, a 32 character text note can be added to each song in a Playlist.

Note: The volume slider on the Play screen is a global value. It is not saved with the current song.
