Issue with delete button of Style Edit menu

[hcubiak]

Pa5X Int 76 v1.2.1: Open any style in the style editor, open the delete page in the Edit Style menu, set Track to All and Element to All and execute the operation. I expect that all tracks are empty after that, but they are not. For example you cannot change the track length. First, you need to manually delete the track and all used chord variations using the Delete Current Chord Variation button, which may take a long time.

Dear Korg people, are you sure that you do a comprehensive test on your firmware before launch?

I also cannot delete an .mp3. Seems strange. Just gives me a message "can't delete a mp3 in use. An mp3 has to be chosen for the unit to know which mp3 to delete and when it is chosen it can't be deleted.

I restarted my machine and tried it again just using file mode, and it did work. So disregard this post.

I don't have Pa5X but in Pa4x it's the same way, that means if you have selected a mp3 song in Song mode and you decide to delete it,
you get a warning message "can't delete a mp3 in use".

1- The workaround in Pa4X (it should be the same for Pa5X) in this case is to select any other different mp3 song in Song mode and then
try to delete the ones you want.

2- Or if you know already what mp3 songs you want to delete, do not go to Song mode but go directly to Media > Delete tab and then select/delete any mp3 song you need.

Hope that helps.

-Actually Delete works as Erase , and works always as in Pa4X for a single element not for the whole Style which is completely silly ,
just create a new one instead that will permit you to define any time signature !
- Therefore the proper function is to select an element like Var/Intro/Fill/Ending and select all tracks / all CV / all events and erase them
but time signature is still there unless you Delete Current Chord Variation per existing (but erased) track due to change time signature.
- In Pa5X you can alter measures of any element like VAR very easily , in page Insert/Cut measures (one single measure can't be cut).
Please all newbies , read manual of how Style editor is working in Pa5X before come to any conclusions !

- About MP3 files , like in your computer you can't delete a used by system file , the same happens here and prevents you from loosing SB data.


Hope this helps
