Step Record procedure
1. When still in the Main page of the Style Record mode,
press one of the E VOLUME/VALUE buttons, to select
the “R” parameter. Use these buttons, or the TEMPO/
VALUE controls, to select the “Stp” recording mode.
2. Press TRK SELECT to switch to the Style Tracks page.
Here you can assign the right Program to each Style
track. (For more details, see “Style Tracks page” on
page 56).
3. Assign a Program to each track, by using the PRO-
GRAM/PERFORMANCE section.
4. Press START/STOP to turn on its LED and enter the
Step Record page. (See “Step Record page” on page 57
for more information on each parameter of this page).
The first two lines (a) are the latest inserted event. The
last two lines (b) are the event currently in edit, ready to
be inserted.
The “Empty” event marks the beginning of the pattern,
when there are no events inserted. It is automatically
inserted when entering the Record mode. It will be
removed when an event is inserted.
5. The “Maaa.bb.ccc” parameter in (b) is the current posi-
tion. This is the place where the note in edit will be
inserted.
• If you don’t want to insert a note at this position,
insert a rest instead, as shown in step 7.
• To jump to the next measure, filling the remaining
beats with rests, press the >> button.
6. To change the step value, use the NOTE VALUE buttons,
on the lower left area of the control panel.
7. Insert a note, rest or chord at the current position.
• To insert a single note, just play it on the keyboard. The
inserted note length will match the step length. You may
change the velocity and relative duration of the note, by
editing the V (Velocity) and D (Duration) parameters.
See “V (Velocity)” and “D (Duration)” on page 57.
• To insert a rest, just press the REST button. Its length
will match the step value.
• To tie the note to be inserted to the previous one, press
the TIE button. A note will be inserted, tied to the previ-
ous one, with exactly the same name. You don’t need to
play it on the keyboard again.
• To insert a chord or a second voice, see “Chords and
second voices in Step Record mode” below.
8. After inserting a new event, you may go back by pressing
the < button. This will delete the previously inserted
event, and set the step in edit again.
9. When the end of the pattern is reached, the “End Loop”
(End of Loop) event is shown in the first two lines of the
display (a), and the recording restarts from the
“M001.01.000” position. Any note exceeding the pattern
length, inserted at its end, will be reduced to fit the total
length of the pattern.
