Chapter 8 Pattern Playback

27 Swing

Here’s an instant way to change the rhythmic feel of a Pattern. Play it straight,

or give it some swing.

Call up a Pattern and start it up. While it’s playing, press the [SWING] button

and turn the [DATA] knob.

Try a setting of about 65 - 70 and notice how the Pattern takes on a “bouncy”

feel. Experiment with different settings and different Patterns. Judicious use

of Swing can make the Patterns sound less mechanical — and give your tracks

a more “human,” natural feel.

28 Muting tracks

The Patterns of the AN200 contain and play back up to four separate tracks — the Synth track and three

Rhythm tracks. The convenient Track Mute feature lets you selectively mute these tracks — even during

playback.

Track Mute actually has two main applications: one in recording, the other in live performance. When

recording several tracks to a Pattern (page 70), it’s often useful to hear only one or two of your previously

recorded tracks — and Track Mute is ideal for this.

However, where Track Mute REALLY shines is in live performance. Pro DJs and dance music artists can

whip the crowd into a frenzy by dropping parts out and bringing parts in. For example, bringing everything

down to the drums is a great dynamic trick that keeps the dancers grooving. From there, you can gradually

build things up, adding track by track until you have the whole mix cooking. Or bring everything in all at

once, and watch the crowd explode.

1 Call up and start one of the Patterns.

2 Let’s start by muting the Synth track. While holding down [SHIFT], press

[1] on the keyboard.

• The Swing effect differs depending on the selected Pattern. For certain Patterns with few

notes (such as only quarter notes), Swing may have little to no effect.

• When the Beat parameter (page 18) is set to “12,” Swing has no effect on the Pattern.

Swing

Determines the amount of swing or triplet

feel in Pattern playback. (Does not change

the actual recorded data.) While a Pattern is

playing, press the [SWING] button and turn

the [DATA] knob to change the value.

Range

50 (straight) — 83 (maximum swing)
