Data Copy within a pattern
Phrase pattern data (including motion sequence data) that you
create for a pattern of length 1 can be copied to the steps of
lengths 2...4. This function is a convenient way to create a pat-
tern that uses similar phrases repeatedly.
1. Create a pattern with a length of 1, and Write it into memory.
(Refer to p.41 "Saving a pattern.")
2. At this point, the same data as in length 1 will automatically
be copied to the steps of lengths 2...4.
3. Change the pattern length to the desired length. (Refer to
p.31, "Length, Scale/Beat settings.")
4. The steps of lengths 2...4 will contain the same data as length
1. Now you can edit the data of lengths 2...4 to complete the
pattern.
The data will be copied in a similar way when the pattern
length is 2 or 3 (refer to the table below). If you shorten a pat-
tern you create, the data will be copied according to the short-
ened length.
The data that is copied automatically when you Write a
pattern does not force the pattern length (1...4) to change.
If the length is 4, data will not be copied within the pat-
tern.
Copying the sound of a part
(Copy Sound)
You can copy the sound of another part to the selected part.

will light.)
3. Hold down the Shift key and press step key 7 (Copy Sound)
(key 7 will light). The display will begin blinking.
4. Use the dial to select the copy source pattern number.
5. Press a part key to select the copy source part. (The copy
source key will blink, and the copy destination key will be
dark.) At this time, you can audition the sound by pressing
the copy source key. (Synth parts will sound at C4.)
6. Press step key 7 once again to execute the Copy Sound op-
eration.
To cancel, press the Stop/Cancel key.
