Step Record
Use STEP RECORD to store the notes one-by-one on the display. This is a convenient way to store com-
plicated patterns that are difficult to play.
Recording procedure
1. While you are recording, press the STEP
RECORD button.
• The display changes to the STEP RECORD display simi-
lar 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 PAGE button to access the PAGE 2/2
display.
4. Use the left LENGTH buttons to specify the
note value. Select from

× 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 (
q
.)
q
+
e
5. Use the PHRS
∧
and
∨
buttons to specify the
actual length of the produced sound for the
desired legato or staccato effect.
6. 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.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 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.
TENU (tenuto): Sound is produced for 95%
of the note length.
NORM (normal): 80%
STAC (staccato): 50%
CUTT (cutting):
25%
