4. Press Play/Rec/Mute to select “REC” for the tracks
you want to record.
For the tracks you don’t want to record, select Play or
Mute.
Tip: You can also control the Play/Rec/Mute setting
from the front panel mixer section, or from the P0–2:
Play/REC– Control Surface page. For details, please
see “Control using the sliders and switches” on
page 82.
5. In the P3: Track Param– MIDI T01–08 and T09–16
page, use MIDI Channel to specify the MIDI
channel of each track.
Set the MIDI channel of each M3 track to match the
MIDI channel of each external sequencer track. Data of
the matching channel will be recorded on each M3
track.
Make sure that Status is set to INT or BTH.
6. Press the LOCATE switch to set the location to
001:01.000.
7. Press the SEQUENCER REC/WRITE switch to
enter record-standby mode.
8. Start your external sequencer.
The M3’s sequencer will automatically begin recording
when it receives the MIDI Start message transmitted
by your external sequencer.
9. When playback has ended, stop your external
sequencer.
The M3’s sequencer will automatically stop recording
when it receives the MIDI Stop message transmitted by
the external sequencer. You can also stop recording by
pressing the SEQUENCER START/STOP switch of the
M3.
After this, you can play back the newly recorded
sequence:
10.In the Global P1: MIDI– MIDI Basic page, set
MIDI Clock to Internal.
Set Tempo Mode to Auto in the Seq P0–1: Play/REC–
Program T01–08 page.
Press the SEQUENCER START/STOP switch to play
back.
Note: If the correct sounds are not selected when you
start playing back, you may be able to solve the
problem by using the menu command Event Edit (P6:
Track Edit) to re-specify the Program Change data.
Recording System Exclusive events
Exclusive messages received from an external MIDI
device or the parameter changes produced when you
edit a MIDI track parameter or effect parameter can be
realtime-recorded on any MIDI track.
During playback, the exclusive messages you recorded
will control the track parameters and effect parameters
of the song, and can be sent to external MIDI devices.
Note: You can use the menu command Put Effect
Setting to Track
to insert an exclusive event containing
the parameter settings for an insert effect, master effect
or total effect into the desired location of a track, so
that these settings will automatically switch during
playback.
GM, XG, and GS exclusive messages can be
recorded on a track, but the M3’s tone generator
will not respond to these messages.
Recording internal parameter changes
You can use SysEx for automation of internal M3
effects and Program parameters.
As an example, let’s record a short phrase on track 1,
add an insert effect, and then record parameter
changes for that effect on an unused track.
Note: In order to record system exclusive messages,
make sure that the Global P1: MIDI– MIDI Routing
setting Enable Exclusive is checked. Go to Global
mode and verify that this is checked.
1. Select the desired program for MIDI track 1, and
route it to IFX1. Then record a phrase of about
sixteen measures.
• In the P0–1: Play/REC– Program T01–08 page, use
“Program Select” to select the desired program for
MIDI Track 01.
