Step input
For step input, you enter each note separately, while the
MRS-1266 is in the stop condition. This makes it easy to
enter even complex drum patterns or bass lines that might be
difficult to achieve with real-time input by playing the pads.
◆ Drum track step input
For drum track step input, you specify the step length
(interval to next note or rest) using the quantize value. Then
you use the pads and the [STEP] key to enter notes and rests.
When you hit a pad and then press the [STEP] key, playing
information is entered at that point, and the step advances by
an interval corresponding to the current quantize value. (The
intensity with which you hit the pad is also recorded.)
If you only press the [STEP] key, no playing information is
entered, but the step advances by an interval corresponding
to the current quantize value (see diagram below).
1.
At the rhythm pattern screen, select an empty

The display changes as follows, and step input becomes
possible.
On the first line of the display, “Q = xx” shows the quantize
value. (Possible values for xx: 4 - 32, Hi) In the bottom right
of the display, the current position is shown in measures/
beats/ticks.
4.
Use the cursor up/down keys to select the
quantize value (length) of the note you want to
enter. The available settings are listed below.
The following settings are available.
4 Quarter note
8 Eighth note
12 Eighth triplet note
16 Sixteenth note
24 Sixteenth triplet note
32 Thirty-second note
Hi 1 tick (1/48 of quarter note)
The quantize value that you select here becomes the length
of one step during step recording. You can use the cursor up/
down keys at any time to change the quantize setting.
HINT
The quantize value setting is linked to the quantize setting for
real-time input. If you change one setting, the other will also
change.
