RECORDING CHORD CHANGES
To record chord changes in the chord track at specific clock locations in
the song, first you must access the Chord Assign feature.
ACCESSING CHORD ASSIGN - From within Step Record Mode, press
[CHORD]. The words “BEAT” and “CLOCK”—which display the current
beat and clock location of the currently selected measure—will appear
in the lower left area of the LCD, and a small inverted triangle will
appear over the Chord Root in the upper left area of the LCD. (You can
press [E] and [F] to position the flashing cursor over the Chord Root,
Chord Type or beat/clock position.)
SPECIFYING A CLOCK - After pressing [CHORD], press [BWD] and
[FWD] to select a measure. If you want to enter the chord change at a
clock position other than at the top of each measure, press [-1] and
[+1] to specify a particular clock in the measure. You can select the
precise clock position in a measure to change the chord by pressing
[F] twice to position the flashing cursor over the beat/clock.
