(blank sections) in the chain (the chain continues playing).
When STYLE is set to END, playback will stop at that point.

Real Time Recording
NOTE
If the pattern track is selected, [Knob 2] and
[F2] [Knob 2] can be used to record style
and section changes. Sections A ~ J can also
be selected via the black keys on the key-
board after the [KEYBOARD] button is
pressed so that its indicator goes out. These
changes will actually be recorded at the
beginning of the next measure.
If the BPM track is selected use [Knob 4] or
[F4] [Knob 4] to record BPM changes.
If the SCENE (scene/mute) track is selected
use the [SCENE/MUTE] and [MEMORY 1] ~
[MEMORY 5] buttons to record scene and
mute memory operations. Also, if the [MUTE]
button is pressed so that its indicator lights
the white keys on the keyboard can be used
to record track mute and un-mute operations.
NOTE
Pressing [JOB] while holding [SHIFT] directly
accesses the 00 Undo/Redo job (Page 134),
allowing the previous record operation to be
undone. This is useful if, for example, youve
accidentally erased material you wanted to
keep.
When you need to make large value changes
rotate a knob while holding the [SHIFT] button
to change values in increments of 10 rather
than 1.
You can also use the SUB MODE buttons as
a numeric keypad to enter values after hold-
ing both the [SHIFT] and [F4] button.
