RECORDING YOUR OWN PATTERNS

STEP 1

If the display’s upper right window shows SONG,

press the PATTERN / SONG button once to select

Pattern Mode (PATTERN will be displayed).

STEP 2

If the display’s upper right window does not show

USER, press the PRESET / USER button once to

select User Patterns (USER will be displayed in the

upper right corner).

STEP 3

Press the INC / DEC buttons or use the DATA dial or number buttons to select an

empty Pattern. If the Pattern is empty, the display will read EMPTY PATT.

STEP 4

Press the RECORD SETUP button to enter the Record Setup Menu. This menu allows you

to customize recording settings, such as Quantization and Swing, which will affect the way

that your patterns are recorded. Alternatively, you may choose to use the default settings in

which case you should skip to Step 8.

STEP 5

On Page 1 of the Record Setup (page is

indicated in lower right corner of screen),

you can select the Quantization interval

with the INC / DEC buttons or the DATA

dial. Quantization shifts your playing to the

specified beat while you play, so choose

the desired value before playing out your

rhythms. Choose higher quantization

settings for more precise and rhythmically

complex playing.

STEP 6

To go to the Swing setting, press the

PAGE RIGHT button twice so Page 3

(SWING SELECT) is displayed on the

screen. The Swing setting imparts the kind

of feel found in shuffles and some jazz

tunes, by shifting the timing of pairs of

equal-valued notes. Select the Swing

setting with the INC / DEC buttons or the

DATA dial. Possible values are OFF, 54%,

58%, 62%.

STEP 7

Once you have selected your Swing and Quantization settings, exit the Record Setup menu

by pressing the RECORD SETUP button again.
