4. Recording Original Phrases
40 RS7000
5 Select a Record Mode
Normally, when recording a new track from scratch you’ll want to use the REPLACE record mode. Use [Knob 2] to select “REPLACE”
(if it isn’t already selected).
If you’ve already recorded some material on a track and want to record additional notes without erasing the existing material, select the
OVERDUB record mode instead of the REPLACE mode. There’s also a STEP mode that allows notes and events to be entered one at a
time so you don’t have to play the part in real time (Page 80), and a GRID record mode that allows easy note entry using the white/gray
keys on the keyboard as a 16
th
-note “grid” (Page 83).
6
Select a REC LOOP Mode
Use [Knob 1] to turn the REC LOOP mode ON or OFF as required. If REC LOOP is ON the pattern will cycle repeatedly allowing you
to add new material on each pass — or simply listen to pattern a few times while you get ready to record. If REC LOOP is OFF there
will be only one recording pass. Turn REC LOOP ON.
The REC QUANTIZE Function
This handy function allows you to quantize “on-the-fly” as you record in real time. If you record with REC QUANTIZE “OFF”,
anything you play on the keyboard will be recorded at maximum resolution (480 clocks per quarter note on the RS7000). But if
you use [Knob 3] to select a quantize note value (quantize values are displayed both in clocks and graphic note symbols), all notes
you play will be quantized to the nearest specified note value as you record. You can even adjust the swing value for each quantize
value selection by pressing the [F3] function button so that the SWING parameter is highlighted and then using [Knob 3]. See
page 78 in the reference section of this manual for more details on quantization and swing.
7
Record
When you’ve set up all the parameters as required, press the [PLAY] button to begin recording. The RS7000 will give you a one-mea-
sure count-in, then recording will begin. Make sure the [KEYBOARD] button indicator is lit (press the [KEYBOARD] button if it isn’t),
and play your original part on the RS7000 keyboard.
Changing the Count-in Length
If a one-measure count-in doesn’t suit your needs, you can change the number of count-in measures via the UTILITY mode REC
COUNT function, described on page 257.
8
Stop Recording
Press the [STOP] button to stop recording.
9
Play and Check the Results
Press the [PLAY] button to play back the pattern and check the results.

Apply Quantization (Optional)
If your timing is perfect or you want to retain a “human” feel in your pattern you might not need to perform this step, but we’ll describe
it anyway since you’ll probably want to make use of the RS7000’s many useful “jobs” quite frequently as you create original phrases
and sequences. Refer to “Pattern and Phrase Editing — the Pattern Jobs” on page 133 for a complete list of the available jobs and param-
eters.
