The pad lights up, showing that it is selected for
operation.
3.
Use the cursor left/right keys to
select a parameter.
The parameters and their setting ranges that are
available for each pad are shown in the table
below.
If the root set for a pattern with BASS KEY ( → p.
64) and the root set for the song are different, the
bass phrase is transposed to match the root
entered for the song. For example, if the pattern
root is set to C for the phrase “G - A - B”, and the
song root is set to D, the resulting phrase will be
“A - B- C#”.
The NEXT parameter determines the operation
when a pad is pressed to switch a pattern and
when a pattern has finished playing.
• P00 - P12
When the pattern is finished, the pattern of the
specified pad (00 - 09: pads 0 - 9, 10: pad [+],
11: pad [x], 12: pad [()] ) will be called up.
• F00 - F12
The pattern changes at the change of the beat,
and when the pattern is finished, the pattern of
the specified pad plays.
• StP
Playback stops at the end of the pattern.
4.
Use the VALUE [+]/[-] keys to
change the setting value.
Repeat steps 2 - 4 to make settings for the other
pads in the same way.
5.
When the setting is complete, press
the [BANK] key or the [EXIT] key.
The unit returns to song mode.
