6.
To enter a note, hit the pad corresponding to the
note, and then press the [STEP] key.
The note is recorded, and the unit advances by one step,
corresponding to the quantize value set in step 4. You can
also use the [BANK/OCTAVE] key to select a different
register before hitting a pad.
HINT
• The intensity with which you hit the pad is also recorded
on the bass track.
• By hitting several pads during input, you can create a
chord. The maximum number of simultaneous sounds in
the rhythm section is 30 for the drum track and bass track
together.
• Instead of tapping the pads, you can also use a MIDI
controller connected to the MRS-1266’s MIDI IN
connector for bass pattern step input.
7.
To enter a rest, press only the [STEP] key.
If you press the [STEP] key by itself, the position advances
by one step (duration of quantize value) but no play
information is recorded.
8.
Repeat steps 5 - 7 while changing the quantize
value and duration as necessary, to enter the
desired bass pattern.
When you reach the end of the pattern, the unit automatically
returns to the first measure, letting you continue the input.
9.
To edit the bass track after step input, proceed as
follows.
■
To erase the performance of a specific pad
When you advance the record position with the [STEP] key,
the pad that is input at the current position lights up. By
holding down the [DELETE/ERASE] key and pressing the
lit pad, you can erase the sound of that pad. The pad goes out,
and the playing information is erased from the rhythm
pattern.
NOTE
When searching for a note to erase, set the quantize value to
the same value as the smallest value used during recording,
or to a smaller value.
10.
When you have finished step input, press the STOP
[
P
] key.
The unit returns to the rhythm pattern screen. Press the
PLAY [
R] key to hear the pattern that you recorded.
11.
To terminate pattern recording and return to the
main screen, press the [EXIT] key.
Setting the rhythm pattern chord in-
formation
When you have recorded a newly created rhythm pattern in
a rhythm song, and you later change the root or chord type,
the bass phrase will be transformed based on the original
chord information of that rhythm pattern. To use a newly
created rhythm pattern in a rhythm song, it is therefore
necessary to specify root and chord information that matches
the bass phrase.
1.
From the main screen, press the [PATTERN] key so
that the key lights up.
The rhythm section goes into rhythm pattern mode, and the
[RHYTHM] key flashes.
2.
Turn the dial to select the pattern for which to
specify chord information, and press the
[RHYTHM] key.
The [RHYTHM] key is now constantly lit, and the unit is in
the condition for creating and editing rhythm patterns.
