If you want RPPR pattern playback to begin at the
moment that song playback begins, it is a good idea
to insert an empty measure containing no musical
data before the song playback begins.
If the song is stopped, the pattern will synchronize to
the timing of the arpeggiator function.
Realtime-recording an RPPR
performance
An RPPR performance can be recorded in realtime. If you
are using only one track (Track01: Drums) as in “Creating
and recording RPPR” (p.92), set “Track Select” to
Track01: Drums, and use single track recording in which
only one track will be recorded.
Even if RPPR uses only one track, use multi-track record-
ing if you will be selecting another track in “Track Select”
and recording its performance at the same time.
You should also select multi-track recording if you created
the RPPR data using multiple tracks rather than just a sin-
gle track, and want to simultaneously record the perfor-
mance of multiple tracks.
The RPPR pattern will be recorded as performance
data on the tracks used by the pattern.
Here we will explain how you can simultaneously record
a performance that uses both RPPR and the arpeggiator.
1 For each RPPR pattern, set “Sync” to SEQ.
With a setting of SEQ, patterns played by the RPPR
function while the sequencer is playing or recording
will start in synchronization with the measures of the
sequencer.
2 We will use the arpeggiator to play the bass pattern.
Follow these settings.
Set “Track Select” to Track02: Bass.
Select the Sequencer P7: Arpeggiator, Setup T01–08
page, and set the track 2 “Arpeggiator Assign” to A.
(Make sure that A is checked for “Arpeggiator Run.”)
Select the Sequencer P7: Arpeggiator, Arpeggiator A
page, and set “Pattern” to U038 (I-A/B).
Set “Gate” and “Velocity” to Step.
Do not check “Key Sync.”
Press the ARPEGGIATOR [ON/OFF] key. (The LED
will light.)
3 In the Sequencer P0: Play/REC, Preference page,
check the “Multi REC” check box.
If “Recording Mode” is set to Loop All Tracks,” it will
not be possible to select Multi REC. Set the “Recording
Mode” to Over Write.
4 Select the P0: Play/REC, Program T01–08 page.
For all tracks, the “PLAY/MUTE/REC” indication will
show REC.
The track played by RPPR will be recorded simulta-
neously with the track played by the arpeggiator. Set
“PLAY/MUTE/REC” to PLAY or MUTE for all tracks
other than tracks 1 and 2, which we will be recording.
Make sure that “Track Select” is set to Track02: Bass.
Your keyboard playing on keys not assigned to the
RPPR function can be recorded on the track specified
by “Track Select.”
5 Make sure that the “RPPR” check box is checked.
6 Press the [LOCATE] key to set the location to
001:01.000.
7 Press the SEQUENCER [REC/WRITE] key, and then
press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key.
Press a key that plays an RPPR pattern, and one or
more keys that play the arpeggiator.
