Note: When going to song mode from segment mode, segment level and tempo
settings are not transferred over to the song. Instead, each song has its own
programmed tempo (see Section 3H) and can acquire (at any time during the song)
any of the eight previously defined drum sound mixes (see Section 1K).
When it comes time to end the song, you may:
Unconditionally end it.
Repeat the song indefinitely.
Link the end of the song to the beginning of another song.
There are many other features of song mode, such as indefinite repeat, programmed
metronome outputs, and so on. These will be described in detail in this section.
Remember: To work with a song you must be in song mode (press the
SONG/SEGMENT button until the SONG light glows).
3B SELECTING A SONG
To choose a particular song:
1. Press the SONG/SEGMENT button so that the SONG light glows.
2. Key in the two digit song number with the keypad. Leading zeroes must be
entered for single digit song numbers (i.e. press then 7 to select song 07).
The display’s upper line will confirm your choice.
3. To start entering segment numbers, press REC/EDIT. The lower line will
indicate the contents of the first song step -- either END for end (Section 3D),
the number of a segment (Section 3C), a begin repeat (4) sign (Section 3F), a
Mix # (Section 3G), or tempo change command (Section 3I).
