Learning to Play by Playing (For Synthesizer Novices)

E-15

As you do when selecting a tone, you can use the

dial to

select the sequence you want. For now, let’s select preset

sequence 2-3, and then press

START/STOP. This will

start playback of the sequence you selected.

Each sequence has eight variations (patterns), which you can

select using the

PATTERN 1 to 8 buttons. Experiment

with selecting the various patterns to get an idea of what is

available.

Example: To select Pattern 3

The Step Sequencer uses nine (8 through 16) of the 16 parts

of the Synthesizer’s sound source, which provides plenty of

support every for very complex rhythms. You can find out

which parts are outputting sound at any time by checking the

level meter on the Synthesizer’s display.

As the sequence plays back, the

buttons (1 to 16)

continually turn on and off, which indicates the movement of

the notes of the part that is being edited (the part indicated by

the pointer (e) in the illustration above. This is the way the

Step Sequencer repeatedly produces the 16 steps.

You can select a part for editing using the

PART minus

(–) and plus (+) buttons. Use the

slider to edit individual

steps. For more information, see page E-50.

What we have seen here is just a very small part of the many

and varied rhythms that can be produced by your Synthesizer.

Be sure to take a look at the procedure under “Using the Step

Sequencer” on page E-50 to find out how you can create your

own original sequences.

The following shows an simple example of how to use the

sample looper to sample a sound and create a loop.

Connect the other electronic music instrument from which you

want to record the sample or a microphone to the Synthesizer.

(See page E-8.)

Press

REC to display the LOOPER REC (sample looper

recording setting) screen.

• Use the

cursor (q, w) buttons and the

minus

(–) and plus (+) buttons to change the “Rec Mode” setting

to “NORM-AT” and the “Length” setting to “04bt”.

Press

REC again.

This will cause the

REC button to flash. This operation

will enter the record auto start mode.

Output the sound on the other electronic music instrument or

microphone, or play something on the Synthesizer. The

Synthesizer will detect the sound and start recording.

• The

REC button lights when recording starts.

After recording of four beats is complete, playback of a loop of

what was recorded starts automatically.

• The

REC button starts flashing at high speed and

overdubbing is paused. Anything you play at this time is not

overdubbed into the sample, so you can play a duet with

what you recorded previously or practice for future

overdubbing.

When you are ready to start overdubbing, press

REC

again. so the

REC button light stops flashing and remains

lit.

• Whatever you play at this time is overdubbed on what you

recorded previously.

• Each press of

REC toggles between loop playback and

overdubbing.

To stop recording, press

PLAY/STOP.

For details, see “Recording and Playing Back with the Sample

Looper” (page E-64).
