Saving data
Saving patterns
After you’ve edited a pattern or recorded in the step
sequencer, you must save your work in the MC-09’s internal
user memory, or on a memory card if you want to keep it. If
you turn off the power without saving your work, your
settings and recorded material will be lost.
Saving a pattern ..........................................................(p. 30)
Saving an effect pattern ............................................. (p. 48)
Saving a loop .................. (p. 59)
After you record (capture) a loop, you must save it to a
memory card if you want to keep it. If you turn off the
power without doing this, your settings and recorded
material will be lost.
Saving a process patch .... (p. 39)
The MC-09 lets you save the sequence of steps you’ve used in
creating a loop, together with the pattern settings that you
used at that time. This is called a Process Patch.
When you play back a process patch that you’ve saved, the
MC-09 will carry out the same process as when you created
the loop, and the loop will be recreated. In other words, a
process patch is somewhat like a keyboard macro on a
personal computer.
