"So how do I determine which drum sounds (notes) play a specific tone?"

8. On the Pattern Edit page, press to highlight the Tone No.: >00 parameter (lower-right of the display).

Make sure that this parameter is set to 00 (Tone 0) - if not, press the

6value key, or press the Numeric

key 0, then ENTER to select Tone 00. This is the bottom line in the Step grid (0).

9. Notice that the Fixed Note No. for Tone 0 is set to B2. That's the kick drum you hear when you trigger

the pattern - it's on the Step grid at steps 1, 7, 13, 19 and 21.

10. Press to highlight Fixed Note No.: B2, then press the

5value key once, to change it to C3. Play and hold

a note on the keyboard to hear the new kick drum. You haven't changed the pattern data yet you've only

changed the note number that plays Tone 0 on the Step grid.

11. Hold down the ENTER key and press note B2, or use the

6value key to change the kick drum to B2.

"This is too cool ! So how do I edit the kick drum steps in the pattern?"

12. Press to highlight Step No.: > 01 (left side, below the Step grid). Make sure this parameter is set to 01. If

not, use the

6value key to set it to 01. The vertical line on the left of the Step grid indicates the selected

step number. Also make sure that the Tone No. (right side) is set to 00.

13. Press the

5value key twice - to move to Step No.: 03 (or use the DIAL). The vertical line indicates no

step has been programmed for step number 03.

14. On the Numeric keypad, press 0. A white dot will appear at step 03. Play and hold a note on the

keyboard to hear the new kick drum edit for Tone 0.

15. Continue moving to new step numbers along the grid, then enter more tones for Tone No. 0. If you

decide you don't want a tone at a certain step, just move to that step and press 0, then ENTER on the

Numeric keypad. You'll see the tone (white dot) disappear from the Step Grid - press 0, then ENTER on

the Numeric keypad again - to "toggle" the tones on and off.
