Chapter 5. Recording a Performance of Samples (Pattern Sequencer)
If you recorded a pad press by mistake, you can erase it as follows.
1. Press [PATTERN SELECT] so it’s lit.
“Ptn” appears in the display.
Pads to which a pattern is assigned start blinking.
If [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted, you’re in Sampling mode.
2. Press [REC] so it’s lit.
3. Press the pad for the pattern that contains the performance
with the mistake you want to delete.
The pad you pressed lights, and the other pads go out.
[REC] starts blinking, and the metronome begins sounding.
4. Press [REC].
[REC] changes from blinking to lit, and recording begins.
The recorded performance starts playing.
If you press a sample pad at this time, it will be recorded.
5. Press [DEL] so it’s lit.
“ErS” is shown in the display.
6. At the appropriate moment, press the pad of the sample
you want to erase.
While you hold down the pad, the dot in the display will blink,
and the recorded presses of that pad will be erased.
You can erase the recorded performance of all pads by holding
down [HOLD].
7. Repeat step 6 as necessary.
8. When you’re finished erasing mistakes, press [DEL].
[DEL] goes out, and the pattern returns to normal recording
mode.
If you press a sample pad at this time, it will be recorded.
9. Press [CANCEL].
The dot in the display starts blinking. Once the data you
specified has been erased, the blinking stops.
Never turn off the power while the dot is blinking. Doing so
may destroy not only the recorded pattern but also other
patterns and even the memory card.
1. Press [PATTERN SELECT] so it’s lit.
“Ptn” appears in the display.
Pads that have been recorded start blinking.
If [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted, this procedure will delete
samples (p. 27).
2. Press [DEL] so it’s lit.
“dEL” appears in the display.
If no patterns are assigned to any pads of the bank, “EMP”
appears in the display and you won’t be able to execute the
Delete operation.
3. Use the bank buttons and pads to specify the bank and pad
of the pattern you want to delete.
The selected pad lights, and [DEL] starts blinking.
Nothing will happen if you press a pad to which no pattern is
assigned (i.e., an unlit pad).
You can simultaneously select more than one pad within the
same bank.
If you specify a bank that is protected (p. 43), “Prt” (Protected)
appears in the display, and you won’t be able to delete the
pattern.
If you decide not to delete the pattern, press [CANCEL].
4. Press [DEL].
[DEL] lights, and the dot in the display starts blinking.
When the pattern you specified has been deleted, the blinking
will stop.
Never turn off the power while the dot is blinking. Doing so
may destroy not only the pattern you’re deleting but also other
patterns and even the memory card.
