FUNCTION Key Settings
Setting Range: 0 - 99 (Default value: 70)
The volume level of the metronome click sound heard during real-time recording can be adjusted with
the [VALUE +/-] keys. This setting applies to all patterns.
Setting Range: 1 - 99
Sets the length of the pattern in the range from 1 - 99 measures. Changing the length of an already
recorded pattern is also possible, but the recorded sound will change as follows. Proceed with care,
especially when making the number of measures smaller.
Making the number of measures larger
Blank measures are added to the end of the pattern.
Making the number of measures smaller
The excess measures at the end of the pattern are cut off. Once the [FUNCTION] key is pressed to
accept the setting, it will not be possible to restore the cut-off measures.
This section describes how to set the function of a foot switch (FS01) connected to the [FOOT SW] jack
on the rear panel. The setting is made by pressing the [FUNCTION] key followed by pad 9 (FOOT SW)
and then the respective pad or key.
[Setting Range] 1 - 13, tAP, Cont, Strt, bMut, MutE, SoLo, rEP (Default value: Strt)
Using the FS01 to play the sound of a pad
Press the [FUNCTION] key followed by pad 9 (FOOT SW) and then one of pads 1 - 13. (The number
of the pressed pad is shown on the display.) The force with which the pad is pushed is also
memorized.
The FS01 will play the sound of the assigned pad when it is pushed. This is useful for example to play
the bass drum with your foot.
Using the FS01 to change the sound of a pad
Press the [FUNCTION] key followed by pad 9 (FOOT SW). Then push the FS01 and press the first
pad. Release the FS01 and press the second pad. The sound of the first pad can now be switched with
the FS01. The lower two digits of the display show the number of the first pad, and the upper two
digits the number of the second pad. When the foot switch is pushed, the sound of the first pad is
heard. When it is released, the sound of the second pad is heard. When wishing for example to switch
