Step input
For step input, you enter each note separately, while the
MRS-802 is in the stop condition.
For rhythm pattern step input, you specify the step length
(interval to next note or rest) using the quantize value. Then
you use the status keys 1 - 8 and the PLAY [ R ] key to enter
notes and rests.
When you press a status key to select a sound and then press
the PLAY [ R ] key, playing information is entered at that
point, and the step advances by an interval corresponding to
the current quantize value.
N OTE
If you use the status keys for input, the recorded note
intensity (velocity value) will be constant. To change the
velocity value, use the "Velocity" item of the rhythm utility
menu (
→
p. 97).
If you only press the PLAY [
R
] key, no playing information
is entered, but the step advances by an interval
corresponding to the current quantize value.

The display changes as follows, and step input becomes

On the first line of the display, “Q = xx” shows the quantize
value (possible values for xx: 4 - 32, Hi). In the bottom right
of the display, the current position is shown in measures/
beats/ticks.
4.
Use the cursor up/down keys to select the
quantize value (length) of the note you want to
enter (
→ P. 90).
The quantize value that you select here becomes the length
of one step during step recording. You can use the cursor up/
down keys at any time to change the quantize setting.
H INT
The quantize value setting is linked to the quantize setting for
real-time input. If you change one setting, the other will also
change.
