About Play Type (LOOP, ONESHOT,
TAP, VLINK)
LOOP ( ):
After the pattern is played back all the way to the end,
playback then repeats, starting at the beginning of the
pattern. Playback continues until [STOP] is pressed.
Loop is useful for practicing and live performance.
ONESHOT ( ):
Playback stops once the end of the pattern is reached.
This is a convenient feature to use when assigning
patterns to the pads (Pad Pattern; p. 35). Each time you
hit the pad to which the pattern is assigned, it will
automatically start from the beginning of the pattern.
TAP ( ):
When set to Pad Pattern (p. 35), the sounds are played
back in sequence each time the pad is pressed. (You can
use [PLAY] instead of a pad.)
For example if you specify “TAP” for a pattern which
contains a melody line and assign this pattern to a pad,
you can play the notes of the melody in order each time
you strike the pad. You can set the “Tap Reset Time” so
that the pattern will automatically return to the
beginning if that time interval elapses without that pad
being hit again. You can play a bass line with your kick
drum, too.
* When using Realtime Recording (p. 61) to record patterns used
for TAP playback, make the Quantize settings (p. 63) before
you begin recording.
V-LINK ( ):
Special “TAP” for the V-LINK function (p. 84).
You can switch the images in order each time you strike
the pad (or press [PLAY]).
