Using the sequencer to create patterns (Pattern mode)
Inputting various types of notes
Inputting a chord
Press the chord. A chord will be input when you release all keys
simultaneously. The chord will not be input as long as even one key
remains pressed, so you can change the keys being pressed to correct
the chord.
Inputting a rest
Press [
] instead of pressing the key.
A note will not be input, but the position will advance by the length
of the step time.
Inputting a tie
If you press [
] instead of pressing a new key, the previously input
note will be lengthened by the length of the step time, inputting a tie.
For example, if you want to connect three quarter notes, step-input a
quarter note, and then press [
] twice.
Inputting a whole note
Press [
] after inputting a half note.
Inputting a dotted note
First input an un-dotted note. Next, set the step time to a length of
half the note you input previously, and press [
].
For example, to input a dotted half note, first input the half note.
Next, change the step time to a quarter note and press [
].
If you make a mistake
If you input a note or a rest by mistake, press [ERASE/UNDO] to
delete it. When you delete a note, the deleted note will sound by way
of confirmation.
Editing individual items of
music data (Microscope edit)
The Microscope lets you edit individual items (
events
) of recorded
performance data; for example you can move an individual event’s
location, make precise changes to it, or delete or insert a single note.
In Pattern mode, hold down [SHIFT] and press [
] to switch to the
Microscope screen. The events in the current part of the currently
selected pattern will be displayed together with the current location
(measure–beat–clock).

Music data handled in Microscope
mode
The Microscope lets you view and edit the following 8 types of
music data (event).
Note
Data that plays a sound.
VALUE
Note:
C-1–G9 (Note)
Velo:
1–127 (Velocity)
Gate:
1–65535 (Gate Time)
PAft (Polyphonic Aftertouch)
These events apply aftertouch to individual keys.
VALUE
Note:
C-1–G9 (Note)
Value:
0–127
The note name will be displayed in brackets.
Polyphonic aftertouch is data transmitted independently from each key
to indicate the force with which each key is being pressed down after it
is played. Since the RS-70 is not able to transmit polyphonic aftertouch,
these events cannot be recorded from the RS-70’s keyboard.
CtrlChg (Control Change)
These events correspond to various control numbers, and are used to
apply effects such as modulation or pan. These are used mainly to
operate knobs and lever.
VALUE
CC#:
0–127 (Controller Number)
Value:
0–127
If you want to know more about the function of each controller
number, refer to
“Settings related to controllers
(CONTROLLER)”
(p. 126).
ProgChg (Program Change)
These events are used to select sounds (patches). The sound
corresponding to the program number will be selected.
Value:
1–128 (Program Number)
