Pattern (A.01)
Rhythm patterns (maximum 64 steps)
Synth Parts
256 patterns A.01...d.64
Drum Parts
Phrase patterns (maximum 64 steps)
Selecting a pattern
Pattern A.01...d.64
Make sure that the Pattern mode key is lit.
Use the cursor keys to select Pattern (the corresponding LED
will light).
Rotate the dial to select one of the 256 patterns: A.01...A.64,
b.01...b.64
, C.01...C.64, and d.01...d.64.
Setting the playback tempo
Tempo 20.0...300.0
• Using the dial to change the tempo
Make sure that the Pattern mode key is lit.
Use the cursor keys to select Tempo (the corresponding LED
will light).
If you wish to change the tempo units to the right of the deci-
mal place, hold down the Shift key and rotate the dial.
• Using the Tap Tempo key to
change the tempo
While the pattern is playing, press the Tap key three times or
more at the desired tempo. The EM-1 will calculate the inter-
val at which you pressed the Tap key, and will change the
tempo accordingly. You can change the tempo in the same way
even when playback is stopped.
When you use the cursor keys to LEDs indicate select Tempo,
and the tempo you modified will appear in the display.
If you switch to a different pattern without writing the
pattern whose tempo you modified, the pattern tempo
will return to the previous value. If you wish to keep the
modified tempo, you must perform the Write operation
(refer to p.41 "Saving a pattern (WRITE)").
Playing a pattern
(Pattern Play)
Press the Play/Pause key to start pattern playback. When the
pattern finishes playing, it will return to the beginning and
continue playing.
To check the pattern that is playing, make sure that the PAT-
TERN mode key is lit, and use the cursor keys to select Pat-
tern
(the corresponding LED will light).
You can use the keyboard function to play on the step keys
along with the pattern, press the drum part keys, or operate
the knobs and keys to modify the sound.
By taking advantage of the various functions of Pattern mode
as part of your performance technique, you can enjoy even
wider possibilities.
The timing at which patterns will
change
When you switch patterns during playback, the change will
occur when the currently playing pattern finishes its last step.
Until the pattern actually changes, the pattern number selected
in the display will blink.
Pattern A01
Pattern is changed Begins playing
Pattern A21
If you change patterns during playback, some slight
noise may be heard due to the change in delay time etc.
If the same effect is used with different settings in the
previous pattern and the newly-selected pattern, the
sound you hear will be the same as if those knobs were
turned.
Playing from the beginning of a pat-
tern (Reset & Play)
If you hold down the Shift key when pressing the Play/Pause
key, the playback will be forced to playback from the begin-
ning. By using this function in conjunction with setting the
tempo by the Tap key, you can synchronize the playback with-
out using MIDI.
In order to ensure that the phrase always matches, you
will need to perform this adjustment each time.
