• Using the part keys to edit the rhythm (Realtime Recording)
If you wish to hear the metronome while you record, refer to p.53 "Metronome settings."
1. Press the Pattern Mode key (the key will light). Use the cursor [▲][▼] keys to make
the parameter select LED indicate PATTERN.
2. Rotate the dial to select the pattern that you wish to edit.
3. Press the Rec key to enter record-ready mode (the Rec key will light, and the Play/
Pause key will blink).
4. Press the Play/Pause key to start the pattern (the Play/Pause key will
light).
5. Strike the part keys at the desired rhythm. The pattern will continue
playing back repeatedly, so you can continue recording additional ma-
terial as long as the Rec key remains lit.
6. Press the Stop/Cancel key to stop recording. (The Rec key
and Play/Pause key will go dark.) You can also press the Rec
key without pressing the Stop/Cancel key, to stop recording
but continue playback. (The Rec key will go dark, and the
Play/Pause key will be lit.)
If you wish to save the pattern that you created, press the WRITE
key. (☞ "Saving a pattern that you create," below.)
The time that an audio part is heard (i.e., the gate time) is deter-
mined not by how long you continue pressing the key, but by the
Pitch/Speed value (☞p.22 "Connecting various sources to the
audio inputs").
Erase
If you accidentally input a wrong note, you can hold
down the Shift key and Rec key while the pattern con-
tinues playing to erase the rhythm pattern for the cur-
rently selected part (i.e., the part whose part key is lit).
