Starting Measure
Set the measure where the pattern that is selected by the
current step will start playing.
fig.03-303a
* The starting measure for step 1 is always set to “001.” This
cannot be changed.
* You cannot set a starting measure that is equal to, or earlier
than the starting measure that is set for the previous step.
* You cannot set a starting measure that is beyond the starting
measure of the next step.
Pattern Number
Select the pattern. Set the patterns for each step as shown
in the figure below.
fig.03-304
* When an arrangement is played from within the Play screen,
the arrangement plays all the way to the end, and then the
performance of the pattern set in the last step is repeated.
Thus, by setting the preset pattern “P327 BREAK” for the last
step, you can have a rest be played repeatedly, which makes it
seem as if the performance of the arrangement has stopped.

current step.
