Pattern Mode

Editing the settings of a

pattern

The

patterns

of the RS-70 contain settings that are made for the

entire pattern, and settings that are made individually for each part
of the pattern.

Settings made for the entire pattern are:

•

Settings for the entire pattern, such as the pattern name and
settings for playing back the sequence data (p. 79)

•

Effect settings for the pattern (p. 80)

Settings made individually for each part of the pattern are:

•

Pattern part settings (p. 80)

•

Effect settings for pattern parts (p. 82)

Making settings that apply to the

entire pattern

Press [PATTERN] so it is lit and you are in Pattern mode.

Select a pattern.

Press [PARAM] so it is lit.

Use PAGE/CURSOR [

]/[

] to select a parameter, and

use VALUE [-]/[+] to specify its value.

You can modify the following parameters.

To save the edited pattern, refer to

“Saving a pattern”

(p. 82).

Making settings that apply to the
entire pattern (Pattern Common
Parameters)

Name (Pattern Name)

You can change the name of the pattern.

Here you can use PAGE/CURSOR [

]/[

] to move through the

characters, and use VALUE [-]/[+] to finalize the desired character.

Value:

space, A–Z, a–z, 0–9, ! “ # $ % & ‘ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = >
? @ [ ¥ ] ^ _ ` { | }

For further information, refer to

“Assigning a name”

(p. 54).

Voice Rsv 1–16 (Voice Reserve 1–16)

The sound generator of the RS-70 can produce up to 64 notes (voices)
simultaneously. If data is received that attempts to play more than
this number of voices, notes will be dropped out. The RS-70 has a

voice reserve

setting that lets you allocate a minimum number of

voices for each part. For example, if you set Voice Reserve to “10” for
part 16, ten voices each for upper and lower tones will be allocated
for part 16, even if the total number of voices being sounded by the
RS-70 reaches the maximum of 64. In this way, consider the number
of sounds you want to play and the number of tones in the patch you
are using, and set the Voice Reserve of each part accordingly.

fig.r06-53_40

Value:

0–32

You cannot make settings that would cause the total of all parts
to exceed 32.

Level (Pattern Level)

Specifies the volume of the pattern.

Value:

0–127

MFX Source

When the MFX effect is applied in Pattern mode, this specifies
whether the effect will use the parameters of the pattern itself, or the
parameters of the patch assigned to the part (p. 91).

fig.r06-54_40

VALUE

PTN/PERF:

The MFX effect will be applied according to the
effect parameters of the pattern itself.

PART1–PART16:

The MFX effect will be applied according to the
parameters of the patch that is selected for the
part.

beginning to end. If this parameter is

, the tempo will change

toward the

Pattern End Tempo

(see following items) as playback

approaches the end of the pattern.

Value:
