Inside the Pa1X is a powerful TC-Helicon Vocal processor! It’s possible to add effects such as reverb,

2. Uncheck all the “master” switches (Harm/Mod,Lead,V1,V2, etc.) in the display.

The Backing Sequencer (Quick Record) function let’s you record a Style with all its elements and real-
time tracks quickly and easily. This is a great feature for getting ideas down quickly, as well as taking
advantage of the wonderfully programmed Styles for writing songs. Why reinvent the wheel?
1. Press the STYLE PLAY button and select the desired Style.
2. Press the SEQUENCER button. The upper part of the DISPLAY will read “New Song”.
3. Press the RECORD button (the red button to the left of the DISPLAY).
4. Press the “Backing Sequence(Quick Record)” radio button in the display then press “OK”.
5. Press the big, red, START / STOP button. There will be a one bar count-off before recording begins.
6. Start Playing!
7. Press the Sequencer 1 PLAY / STOP button to end the sequencer recording. (Pressing the Start/Stop
button will NOT stop the sequencer!)
8. Press PLAY / STOP button again to hear your sequence. Ta – Da! You and the Pa1X have created a SONG!
One of the great features of the Backing Sequencer is the ability to change what you’ve recorded easily.

chord(s) in your progression it can be quickly done without having to re-play the parts…

“OK”.
10. In the lower part of the display you can move one event, measure or step at a time and change the Style,
Tempo, Chord, etc. of your song with out having to re-record it.
