■ Scale Display
The “▼” mark in the scale display indicates the timing of the quarter notes.
fig.01-23
When there are too many beats to allow all of the notes from the beginning to the end of the
pattern to be displayed at one time, “ ” appears, indicating that there are steps that are not
being displayed.

■ Changing the Scale
By changing the scale (the length of individual steps = a single square), you can have patterns
containing many notes be shown in their entirety, as well as display the content of more
complex patterns.
(Example)

Operation

While continuing to hold down [SHIFT], turn the TEMPO/VALUE dial to change the scale setting.
