Th€ display
is now waiting for a second
drum
pad
lo
b€
Press€d
(pressing
RECORD
at
lhis
point
will
.do
nothing).
lf for example, TOM
1 was
pressed,
lhe display
would read:
COPY FROM PATT
CLS HAT
>
IOM
1
The display
of th€ s€cond
pad pressed
remains underlined, indicaling
that it
can
still be changed
by selecting anolh€r drum
pad.
As in copying
pallerns,
once
RECORD
is
pressed,
the copy will
be compl€te, and tho display
will read
'COPY
COMPLETE."
Th€ length
of th€ rhythm of the destination
pad
will not be changed,
and the source
drum
rhvlhm will be merged with the destination
drum rhythm.
The dsstination
drum will remain assigned
to its
previous
voice, mix,
and tuning. A drum
from
one
patt€rn
can
be
copied
to a drum of another
pattern
if the destination
pattern
is
selecled before selecting tho sourc€
and d€stination drum buttons.
Copylng a
SONG to ltselt
In SONG mode,
pressing
and holding the COPY button
will result in the following
display:
COPYFROI\,ISONG
01 TO SONG
The
01 display will actually show the curr€ntly selecl€d song
number. Like
in
PATT mode,
pressing
RECORD will append the current song
to itself, making
il
twic€ as
long.
Copylng
a SONG to another SONG
lf a
n€w
song number is selected, the display will
show the newly selected song
number, and
pressing
RECORD will append lhe source song numb€r
(the
number
selecled b€for6
pressing
coPY), lo th€ deslination song number
(the
numb€r
selected whilo holding COPY).
This mode is
very useful, since a verse consisting
of more than one
pattern
could
b€ €ntered
into a song, and then appended into anoth€r
song when n€eded without
having to
re-enter th€
patterns
for ths v€rs€. lf lhe destination
song would
resull in
more than 255 steps alter copying, th€
copy will not be
ex€cuted, and
the display will r€ad:
TOOMANYSTEPS
ln all cases,
the copy is nol execuled
until RECORD is
pressed,
and will be
aborted
if
COPY is released before
pressing
RECORD. The
COPY button has
no €ffect while
a song or
pattern
is
playing.
