Playing back a phrase

(RPS: Realtime Phrase Sequence)

Phrases assigned to each of the eight areas of the D-FIELD

will continue playing as long as you continue pressing that

area.

The phrases assigned to each of the eight areas of the D-

FIELD are collectively managed as an “RPS set.” You are free

to re-assign the contents of an RPS set, and internal memory

can accommodate 30 different sets. You can also switch RPS

sets while a pattern is playing.

Holding RPS

You can hold the RPS so that the phrase continues playing

even when you take your finger off of the D-FIELD.

• Holding all phrases

1. Press [HOLD] to make it light.

2. Press the D-FIELD to play a phrase.

When you once again press the same area of the D-

FIELD, that phrase will stop.

• Specifying whether each phrase will be held or not

1. While pressing [HOLD], press the D-FIELD to play a

phrase.

[HOLD] will blink, and that phrase will continue playing

until the same area of the D-FIELD is pressed once again.

2. The phrases being held will continue playing until

you hold down [HOLD] and press the D-FIELD as you

did in step 1.

The phrases will be heard together.

3. A phrase that you do not want to hold can be played

by pressing only the D-FIELD.

When you release your finger, that phrase will stop

playing.

* As an alternative to holding down [HOLD] and pressing the

D-FIELD in steps 1 and 2, you can obtain the same result by

holding down the D-FIELD to play the phrase and pressing

[HOLD].

By pressing [HOLD] to make it go dark, you can stop all

phrases.

Assigning phrases to the D-FIELD

You may find it convenient to assign your favorite or

frequently used phrases as one RPS set.

1. Select the pattern that contains the phrase you want

to assign.

2. Press [PART MUTE], and use the mute buttons to

mute all but the part that you wish to assign to RPS.

3. Hold down [RPS] and turn [VALUE] to select the RPS

set to which you will assign the phrase.

4. While holding down [RPS], press the D-FIELD area

number to which you will assign the pattern.

* It is not possible for multi-part phrases to be assigned to each

of the eight D-FIELD areas. You must mute all parts other

than the part that contains the phrase you wish to assign. If

you attempt to assign a phrase in which two or more parts are

un-muted, the display will indicate “noASGn”.

* If you have assigned a phrase from a user pattern to RPS, and

modify the performance data of the pattern that contains that

phrase after it has been assigned, be aware that the phrase

played by RPS will be affected by these modifications. For

example if you delete the performance data of a pattern that

contains an assigned phrase, no sound will be heard when you

use RPS to play that phrase.

* If you assign a phrase from a part that uses MFX, the MFX

settings during RPS playback will be determined by the MFX

settings of the currently selected pattern. This means that the

RPS playback may sound different than the original phrase.

* If you assign a phrase from the rhythm part, the rhythm mute

settings will be ignored during RPS playback.

* Each phrase will be played back by a dedicated RPS part 1–8

that corresponds to the eight areas of the D-FIELD. However,

phrases that were assigned from the rhythm part will be played

back by the rhythm part of the currently selected pattern. This

means that in some cases, the phrase may be sounded by a

different rhythm set than that of the assignment source. If a

different rhythm set is selected when you switch patterns, the

rhythm set played by RPS will also change.
