Each song consists of patterns arranged in a particular playback order. You can

event recording allows you to record drum part performance, synth phrase per-
formance, arpeggiator performance, knob movements, solo/mute operations and
tempo changes into a song.
Edited sounds cannot be stored in a song. You must use Pattern
mode to edit sounds.
