“CUR” indicates the current input position (in measures,
beats, and clock units). This value will change whenever
you move the input position using [CURSOR].
In addition, the abbreviated names of the various drum
sounds are displayed on the left-hand side of this screen.
The actual names corresponding to these abbreviations
are as follows.

When working with long patterns or high resolutions, it is
likely that all of the step recording data will not fit into a
single screen. In such a case, you can press one of the PAGE
SCROLL buttons to scroll the display to the left or the right.
In addition, if you want to program a drum not currently
shown on the left of the screen, move the cursor up or down
accordingly. This action will cause the step-recording grid to
scroll up or down, displaying other drum sounds.
