3 New settings
Indicates the parameter settings of the selected Setup
above (1).
From this display you can set parameters related to the
Song/Pattern mode, such as Pattern change timing.
n The settings here do not affect the Performance mode.
1 Quantize
Determines the quantize value for Section (Pattern)
switching during playback when you change the Section.
When set to “1,” Patterns (Sections) will always switch on
the first beat of the next measure during playback after you
change the Section. When set to “1/16,” Sections can be
switched on any 16th beat during playback.
Settings: 1 (1 measure), 1/2 (Half note), 1/4 (Quarter note), 1/8 (8th
note), 1/16 (16th note)
2 Tempo Hold
Determines whether or not the tempo setting will switch to the
tempo value stored with each Pattern when a new Pattern is
selected during playback. When set to “on,” the tempo will be
retained when Patterns are switched. When set to “off,” the
tempo will switch to that stored with the new Pattern when
Patterns are switched. Normally, set this to “off.”
Settings: on, off
n The tempo setting data in the Pattern Chain is not affected by
this parameter.
3 Load Mixing
Determines whether the Mixing settings are loaded (on) or
not (off) when the Song/Pattern number is changed.
Normally, set this to “on.”
Settings: on, off
n When the Load Mixing parameter is set to “off,” song changes
via Song Chain playback do not change the Mixing setup.
4 Song Event Chase
Normally, if a Song or Pattern is played back from mid-
point and/or fast-forward or rewind are used, certain data
types (such as Program Change, Pitch Bend, and Control
Change) may not play back as expected. Setting this to a
specific event ensures the playback integrity of the event,
even when fast forwarding or rewinding.
Settings: off, PC (Program Change), PC+PB+Ctrl (Program Change +
Pitch Bend + Control Change)
n Keep in mind that settings other than “off” may result in slower
operation—for example, a pause before starting playback, or
slower rewind/fast-forward speed.
n When this is set to “all,” an excessive amount of MIDI data
may be generated, possibly resulting in a MIDI error on the
connected device.
