Panasonic SX-KN7000 - Manual (Page 74)

Outline of the Sequencer
A sequencer records your performance in a similar way to a tape recorder. This instrument’s SEQUENCER
allows you to record up to 10 performances in a variety of ways. You may want to record your entire
performance in one go (especially if you are using AUTO PLAY CHORD to provide the accompaniment),
or to build up a complex arrangement with several different parts playing together, like an orchestral
score. This instrument’s SEQUENCER has 16 tracks. This means that you can record 16 different parts.
However, you don’t have to use all 16 tracks. For some uses you may only need to use one or two
tracks. This instrument’s SEQUENCER enables you to edit your recorded performance. Unlike a tape
recorder you can change the sound or the tempo during playback, or correct wrong notes or timing
errors.
SEQUENCER features
You can change the tempo without chang-
ing the pitch
When you record your performance at a slow
tempo and play it back at a faster tempo, the pitch
stays the same.
Consistent sound
Your performance is reproduced by a sound mod-
ule as it reads digital data. So, unlike a recorded
tape, the sound never deteriorates no matter how
many times you play back your performance.
Edit your recorded performance
Comprehensive editing functions allow you to
modify your recorded performance. Data can
easily be erased, corrected or copied, providing
an especially convenient tool for creating your
original tunes.
Instant search
A recorded tape has to be rewound, but digital
action means you can return to the beginning of
your performance, or find any measure, instantly.
Popular features
Simplified recording method
EASY RECORD is a feature that allows you to
bypass the more complex recording procedures
so you can record and play back your perform-
ance quickly and easily.
• You can also record an accompaniment from
the AUTO PLAY CHORD.
Create a one-man ensemble
Use the REALTIME RECORD function to record
your performance in up to 16 tracks and create
your own orchestra or band.
Store individual data to create your song
For repeating patterns or those especially com-
plicated phrases, the STEP RECORD feature is
convenient for recording the notes one-by-one.
• This method can be used to store both the
chord progression for the automatic accom-
paniment and the rhythm changes.
Memory capacity
Up to 10 songs can be stored in the
SEQUENCER. Expressed in terms of notes, the
total number of notes which can be stored in all
the SEQUENCER songs and tracks is about
40,000. The remaining memory available for re-
cording is shown on the display as a percentage
(MEMORY= %).
• When “Memory full!” appears on the display,
no more data can be stored in the
SEQUENCER.
