DELETE - To delete all data in the 32nd note area
where the position pointer is located, press SHIFT +
[F8] ( Del ). (NOTE: The position pointer location
will not change.)
KEYBOARD VIEW (C-1 ~ B7)
The entire keyboard will not fit in the screen, but you
can access views of the lower region of the keyboard by
pressing [F1] once or more, and the upper region of the
keyboard by pressing [F2] once or more. A small plus
+ sign indicates middle C, or C3.
~ VELOCITY
To determine the velocity value of notes, press [F3 ~ F6]
before entering note data on the keyboard. (The selected
velocity value will display in reverse type.)
PIANO - Pressing [F3] ( p ) designates that the
subsequent notes will be assigned a piano velocity
value of 56.
MEZZO FORTE - Pressing [F4] ( mf ) designates
that the subsequent notes will be assigned a mezzo
forte velocity value of 88.

subsequent notes will be assigned a forte velocity
value of 120.
KEYBOARD - Pressing [F6] ( kbd ) designates that
the subsequent notes will be assigned a velocity
value according to how you strike the keys.
NOTE LENGTH
Indicates the currently selected note length. At any time
during step recording you can use the numeric keypad
to enter note lengths as shown by the symbols printed
above each key on the keypad. You can also modify the
note lengths by pressing [F7]. If possible, the note
values in this area will be displayed as graphic symbols
for a whole note, quarter note, etc. Otherwise the note
length will display as a number representing clocks (at
a maximum of 960 clocks).
NOTE: The CANCEL button will not function in Song
Record Mode.
BACK DELETE
The back delete function, engaged by pressing [F8]
( BDel ) depends on the current note length. For
example, if the currently selected note length is a quarter
note, then data at the location quarter note previous to
the current position will be deleted, and the cursor will
move back by a quarter note.
● DATA INPUT
To input data in step record, you ll use a combination of the
keyboard (to input actual notes), the KEYPAD (to input
note and other values as indicated above the KEYPAD
buttons), and the function keys (to determine velocity and
other values and access additional parameters).
KEYBOARD - Each time you press and release a key on
the keyboard it will be recorded, or input, and the
position will move ahead one step as specified by the
step time. The note will not be entered until all keys
have been released. This allows you to enter more than
one note at the same location by pressing more than one
note before releasing the first.
KEYPAD - The numeric keys #1 ~ #8 on the KEYPAD
let you specify the note length to be recorded. Pressing
each key will select the note length printed above it,
from a whole note (#1) to a 16th note triplet (#8). This
also determines the step time by which the cursor will
automatically advance after each note has been entered.
To create a dotted note, press #9. To create a double
dotted note, press #9 twice. To extend the duration of
the previously entered note by the current note length
with a tie, press [—]; the cursor will advance accordingly.
To advance one step without entering data with a rest,
press #0, or just move the position pointer.
SCROLL - Using the JOG/SHUTTLE or the CURSOR
keys, you can scroll back and forth through the mea-
sures and stop to enter notes wherever you like. As you
cross note data, it will display on the keyboard diagram
and sound by the tone generator.
● STEP STOP
When you ve finished the step recording process, press
STOP/TOP. The Song Sequence Play function screen will
appear, from where you can press RUN and hear the song
you just recorded.
NOTE: Since song sequences are not retained in memory at
power off, always be sure to save your important sequence data
to disk before turning off the power.
NOTE: The note length can be doubled by pressing the same key
on the keyboard twice, or by pressing [F7]. For example,
pressing #7 creates an 8th note triplet. Pressing it again (or
pressing [F7]) creates a quarter note triplet.
