Note: To vary the groove’s tempo, you must first import the generated
MIDI data into the Percussion track (Import function of the Style and
Pad Record mode), and assign the new generated Sound to the Per-
cussion track.
Gaps between sliced samples, when slowing down the tempo, can be
automatically filled by the Extend function, smoothing each sample’s
tail.
Edit the MIDI data
Note: To recombine notes inside the generated MIDI sequence, you
must first import the MIDI data in Style or Pad Record mode, by using
the “Import” function. Then, use the Event Edit to change the note
order.
