Step Record
Use STEP RECORD to store the notes one-by-one on the display. This is a convenient way to store
complicated patterns that are difficult to play.
Recording procedure
1. While you are recording, press the STEP RE-
CORD button.
• The display changes to the STEP RECORD
display similar to the following.
2. Use the CURSOR buttons to move the cursor
to the note position you are going to store.
• Each dot represents one-eighth of a quarter-
note (a thirty-second note).
• When storing triplets, it may not be possible
to match the timing exactly with the 1/32-note
steps. However, if you select triplet-type notes
for the note length (LENGTH) in step 4 below,
the timing is automatically corrected.
3. Use the left LENGTH buttons to specify the
note value. Select from
3 , , 3 , , 3 , , 3 ,
, , , × 2 to 4. (A 3 denotes a triplet-type
note.)
• For note values other than these, use the right
LENGTH buttons to specify the note value to
be added to that which you specified with the
left buttons.
Example: To record a dotted quarter-note ( .)
+
4. Use the PHRS
∧
and
∨
buttons to specify the
actual length of the produced sound for the
desired legato or staccato effect.
TENU (tenuto): Sound is produced for
95% of the note length.
NORM (normal): 80%
STAC (staccato): 50%
CUTT (cutting):
25%
5. Specify the pitch and velocity of the note by
playing the keyboard.
• The dot on the display where the note is stored
changes to a * mark.
• When recording chords, you can store multiple
notes at one position.
REST: To store a rest, after specifying the note
LENGTH, press the REST button.
• Positions at which nothing is stored are read
as rests.
ERS: If you make a mistake, move the cursor
to the error, and after displaying the data
you wish to erase, press the ERS button.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 to continue storing
notes.
• To record a different part, use the PART ∧
and
∨
buttons to select another part.
• The NOTE, VELOCITY, LENGTH, CHORD
MODIFY and CONTROL can be revised later.
Press the OK button after the revision.
• You can easily switch between the REALTIME
mode and the STEP mode any time during
recording. To return to the realtime recording
display during the STEP RECORD mode,
press the EXIT button.
