3 When you play the keyboard, you will hear the drum

program for track 1 of the template song.

4 Press the popup button located at the left of “Track

Select,” and select Track 02: Bass. When you play the
keyboard, you will hear a bass sound.

“Track Select” is the track that will be used to record/
play song data. Normally, the track selected here can
be played from the keyboard, and during recording,
your performance will be recorded on this track (in
cases other than Multi REC or Master Track).

Next select T03–T08 in order, and play them from the
keyboard. (The TRITON STUDIO has sixteen sequence
tracks, but this template song specifies only tracks 1–8.)

Select Track03: Elec. Piano.

5 Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to play

back the preset pattern that you copied. Play the key-
board while you listen to the drum pattern.

6 Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to stop.

2. Repeatedly playing specific measures of

a track (Track Play Loop)

Here’s how to use Track Play Loop to repeatedly play
back a drum phrase.

1 Press the PlyLoop tab to access the P0: Play/REC,

PlayLoop T01–08 page.

2 Check track 1 “Track Play Loop,” leave “Loop Start

Measure” as it is, and set “Loop End Measure” to 008.

3 When you press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP]

key, the drum phrase will be played back repeatedly.

When the playback has repeated for the number of
measures in the song as specified by “Length” (the
power-on default is 64 measures), it will stop automati-
cally.

By using “Play Intro” you can begin the loop after
adding an introduction (

☞PG p.55).

Track Play Loop will continue repeating for the num-
ber of measures specified by “Length.” If you want to
limit the number of repetitions or place other perfor-
mance data (e.g., a drum fill-in) in that track, you will
need to expand the pattern into actual performance
data. Use the page menu command “Repeat Mea-
sure

” P5: Edit, Track Edit page to specify the number

of playback repetitions and expand the pattern as
playback data. In the sample illustration below, per-
formance data will be created to play measures 1–8 of
track 1 for four times (i.e., 32 measures).

3. Recording the bass track

1 If playback is occurring, press the SEQUENCER

[START/STOP] key to stop playback.

Press the [LOCATE] key to return to the beginning of

The location will indicate 001:01.000.

2 Press the [EXIT] key, and then press the Prog. 1–8 tab

to access the P0: Play/REC, Program T01–08 page.

3 Use “Track Select” to select the track that you want to

record.
In this example, select Track02: Bass.

Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to start
playback, and practice playing the phrase that you
want to record.

When you are finished rehearsing, press the
SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to stop playback.

Press the [LOCATE] key.

When the power is turned on, the Recording Setup of
the TRITON STUDIO will be set to Over Write
recording

, in which newly recorded data will be

overwritten. For details on other recording modes,
refer to p.83 and PG p.57.

When recording rapid or difficult phrases, you can
slow down the tempo and record at a more comfort-
able tempo. Simply adjust the “ (Tempo).” After
recording, restore the original tempo.
