Real-time input
For real-time input, you use the status keys on the top panel
or an external MIDI keyboard or similar to record the
pattern while listening to the actual drum sounds.
This section explains how to use the status keys 1 - 8 on the
MRS-802 to input a rhythm pattern in real time.
1.
In rhythm pattern mode ([SONG/PATTERN] key
out), press the [DRUM] key so that it is lit.
While the [DRUM] key is lit, pressing one of the status keys
1 - 8 produces the assigned drum sound.
NOTE
If you use the status keys 1 - 8 for real-time input, the
intensity of producing a note (velocity value) is constant.
When wishing to change the velocity, call up the "Velocity"
item of the rhythm utility menu and select SOFT, MEDIUM, or
LOUD. (The default setting is MEDIUM.)
2.
Turn the dial to select an empty rhythm pattern
number.
3.
Press the [SOLO] key and turn the dial to select the
instrument bank number.
Turning the dial to change the instrument bank number will
switch the sound that is produced by each of the status keys
1 - 8. To return to the original display, press the [EXIT] key.
4.
Press the PLAY [
R
] key while holding down the
REC [

You will hear a pre-count of four clicks (1 measure). When
the pre-count ends, rhythm pattern recording will begin.
The number of pre-count measures and the metronome
volume can be changed as desired (→ P. 97).
5.
While listening to the metronome, hit the status
keys.
Your performance on the keys will be recorded according to
the quantize setting (→ p. 90). When you reach the end of
the pattern, the unit automatically returns to the first
measure, and real-time input continues.

To change the drum sound bank assigned to status
keys 1 - 8, press the [SOLO] key and then turn the
dial to select the instrument bank number.
If you press the REC [O] key during recording, the REC

the sounds assigned to the status keys 1 - 8. Press the REC
[
