Step sequencer

MIDI transmission from the step sequencer

In Sequencer mode, the step sequencer function transmits

the step sequencer's note data on the MIDI Channel (S-

TRACK>MIDI) if track 16's Status (SEQ>PROG) is set to

BTH, EXT, or EX2.

Using the step sequencer with

Favorites

When using the Favorites function, the settings of each

registered program or combination can make the step

sequencer play.

You’ll be able to turn steps on/off, but the settings

cannot be saved. Nor can you enter the various STEP

SEQ pages. You’ll need to use Program mode or

Combination mode to edit the step sequencer settings.

Playing and stopping the step sequencer

1. Select a favorite program or combination. (see

page 53)

2. Press the STEP SEQ RUN button to start playback

(the button will be lit).

Press the button once again to stop (the button will be

unlit).

The drum loop pattern that’s saved together with the

program or combination sound will play.

Note: The on/off state of the RUN button is not saved when

you write the program.

Entering a pattern

1. Press the STEP SEQ ACTIVE button to make the

button lit.

Pads 1–16 will turn each of the step sequencer’s steps on/

off.

2. Use the BANK SELECT button and pads 1–16 to

enter steps. Each time you press a pad, it will turn on

(lit) or off (unlit); if it is on, sound will be produced.

3. To enter other tones, hold down the STEP SEQ

ACTIVE button and press pads 1–12 to switch tones.

Then press pads 1–16 to turn them on/off.

4. To add accents, hold down the STEP SEQ ACTIVE

button and press pad 13 to select it; then use the

BANK SELECT button and pads 1–16 to turn the

accent on/off for each step.

Synchronizing the

step sequencer

The step sequencer will play in synchronization with the

internal/external MIDI clock.

Synchronization with the arpeggiator

The step sequencer will synchronize to the timing of the

currently playing arpeggiator.

Note: If you want to synchronize the arpeggiator playback to

the step sequencer that’s currently running, turn Key Sync

(P-ARP> SETUP, C-ARP> A, B, S-ARP> A, B) off.

Synchronization with the Drum Track

In Sequencer mode, the step sequencer will synchronize to

the Drum Track pattern that's currently playing.

Note: If you want to synchronize the Drum Track pattern

playback to the step sequencer that’s currently running,

select the Sync check box (in each mode, DRUM TRACK>

PATTERN page Drum Track setting).

Synchronization between the step sequencer

and the sequencer in Sequencer mode

When playing or recording a song

• The step sequencer will synchronize to the song in units

of one beat.

Synchronization with song start

• If the step sequencer is on (i.e., the RUN button is on)

and running, it will reset to the beginning of the pattern

when it receives a song start message.

Synchronization with the playback of an

external sequencer

If “ (Tempo)” is EXT (i.e., if the G-MIDI> BASIC page

MIDI Clock parameter is set to Ext-MIDI or Ext-USB) in

Program, Combination, or Sequencer modes, the step

sequencer will synchronize to MIDI timing clock and start

messages from an external MIDI sequencer etc. connected

via a MIDI cable.

Note: The step sequencer will also synchronize in the same

way if MIDI Clock is set to Auto and MIDI timing clock

messages are being received from a connected MIDI device.

Synchronization with external MIDI timing clock

The step sequencer will synchronize to “ (Tempo)” based on

the external MIDI timing clock.

Synchronization with the MIDI realtime command Start

message

If the step sequencer is on and running, it will be reset to the

beginning of the pattern when it receives the Start command.

During last night's gig, my Kross 2 started changing "Favorites" - one after the other - switching through the banks and sounds, while I was playing. What could cause that. It didn't do it all the time, just every now and then at random. Submitted on 4-9-2022 at 00:59
