FUNCTION Key Settings
Setting Range: 2, 3, 4
Set the beat for the pattern to 2 (2/4 beat), 3 (3/4 beat), or 4 (4/4 beat).
Changing the beat of an already recorded pattern is also possible, but the recorded sound will change as
follows. Proceed with care, especially when making the beat shorter.
■ Choosing a longer beat than the current beat
A blank space with the length of the additional beat is added to each measure.
■ Choosing a shorter beat than the current beat
The excess duration of each measure is cut off. Once the [FUNCTION] key is pressed to accept the
setting, it will not be possible to restore the cut-off sections.
Setting Range: 0, 1, 2, PAd (Default value: 1)
The pre-count (number of metronome ticks before the start of pattern real-time recording) can be turned
on and off, and the number of measures etc. can be set. This setting applies to all patterns.
The settings have the following meaning.
0: Real-time recording starts immediately when the [PLAY] key is pressed.
1: Real-time recording starts after 1 measure has been counted.
2: Real-time recording starts after 2 measures have been counted.
PAd: The unit goes into recording standby mode when the [PLAY] key is pressed, and recording
starts when any pad is pressed.
Setting Range: 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, Hi (Default value: 16)

repetition
• Pad push/release detection timing during groove play
The following 8 settings are available for the quantize value.
