5.1–2: RPPR Setup
Here you can make settings for the RPPR (Real-time Pattern
Play/Recording) function. RPPR lets you assign a pattern
from a song to each key, and then playback patterns simply
by pressing individual notes on the keyboard. The results
can also be recorded.
For each song, you can assign either a preset pattern or a
user pattern to each of the seventy two keys in the range
C#2–C8. For each key, you can specify the pattern, track
number, and how the pattern will be played.
The arpeggiator is not operated by patterns played
back by RPPR. When RPPR is on, keys for which no
pattern is assigned will sound the track selected by
“Track Select.” At this time, the arpeggiator will operate
if either arpeggiator A or B is selected for that track and
turned on. RPPR will not be triggered by notes gener-
ated by the arpeggiator.
When Local Control is OFF (“Local Control On” GLO-
BAL 2.1–1a), the keyboard will not trigger RPPR pat-
tern playback. Notes received at MIDI IN on the
channel of the track currently selected by “Track Select”
will trigger patterns. If you have recorded only the trig-
ger notes on an external sequencer and wish to play-
back the external sequencer to trigger RPPR patterns on
this instrument, set Local Control OFF.
If you want the note data generated by RPPR to be
recorded on the external sequencer, set Local Control
ON, and turn off the echo back function of the external
sequencer.
In the RPPR Setup page, RPPR is turned on automati-
cally. This will be the same result as when the RPPR
check box (1.1–1c) in each page is checked.

5.1–2b: RPPR Setup
Keyboard & Assigned drawing
This shows the selected key, and the keys to which a pattern
has been assigned by the RPPR function. (Assignments are
not possible for the keys displayed in gray.)
KEY (Key Select) [C#2...C8]
Indicates the key that you wish to edit. The following
parameters will apply to the key that you select here.
The key can also be selected by holding down the [ENTER]
key and playing a note on the keyboard.
Assign [Off, On]
On (checked): When you play the key specified by “KEY,”
the pattern selected in “Pat (Pattern Bank),” “Pattern Select”
will be triggered.
Off (unchecked): That key will sound the currently selected
track at the corresponding pitch, just as in normal Sequencer
mode.
Pattern (Pattern Bank) [Pre, User]
Pattern Select [P000...149, U00...99]
Indicates the RPPR pattern for the key selected in “KEY.” If
the selected user pattern contains no musical data, there will
be no sound when you press that key.
Track [T01...T16: name]
Indicates the track that will be used for the RPPR pattern
selected for the “KEY.” When you play the key, the pattern
will be played according to the settings of the track you
select here. Track settings are made in 1.1: Play/REC–4.4:
MIDI Filter 4. When you record in real-time with the RPPN
function turned on, the data will be recorded on the track
you select here. (
☞BG p.74)
M (Mode) [Once, Manual, Endless]
Specifies how the pattern of the specified “KEY” will be
played.
Once: When you press the key, the pattern will playback
only once to the end.
Manual: The pattern will continue repeating as long as you
continue holding the key, and will stop when you release the
key.
Endless: The pattern will continue repeating even after you
release the key. To stop the pattern playback, press any note
below C2, or press the same key once again.
Shift [–12...+12]
Adjust the playback pitch of the pattern for the specified
“KEY” in semitone steps over a range of ±1 octave. With a
setting of 0, the pattern will be played at its original pitch.
Sync [Off, Beat, Measure, SEQ]
Specifies how the pattern playback will be synchronized
when you press the specified “KEY.”
Off: The pattern will begin playing at the moment you press
the note.
Beat: The pattern will synchronize to the beats of the pattern
that was started by the first key (i.e., the first note-on that
occurs from a condition where no notes of the keyboard are
pressed). This setting is suitable when you wish to play
phrase patterns in unison.
