Chapter 3: Recording Sequences
The Play/Record Keys and the Locate Keys
These ten keys operate similarly to the transport keys on a tape recorder, with some useful addi-
tions:
•
The PLAY START key:
This plays back the currently selected sequence to begin playing from the first bar.
•
The PLAY key:
This plays back the sequence from the current position displayed in the Now: field on the
Main Screen.
•
The STOP key:
This stops playback or recording.
•
The OVERDUB key:
While holding this key, press PLAY to overdub new notes to the track, without erasing
existing notes. You can Overdub from the stop or playback modes.
While the Overdub mode is active, the light above the OVERDUB key is on.
To cancel the Overdub mode, press the OVERDUB key again and the light above the key
will turn off.
•
The REC key:
While holding this key, press PLAY to start recording. New notes can be recorded into the
currently selected track while existing notes are erased, just as with a tape recorder.
You can record from the stop or playback modes.
During recording, the LED above the REC key is on.
To stop recording, press the RECORD key again and the light above the key will turn off.
•
The BAR << / >> Keys:
By pressing one of these keys, you can move the sequence position back or forward by one
bar. To move to the beginning of the sequence, hold down the GO TO key and press the
BAR << key. To move to the end of the sequence, hold down the GO TO key and press the
BAR >> key.
•
The STEP < / > Keys:
By pressing one of these keys, you can move the sequence position back or forth by setting
a number on the Timing: field on the Main Screen. For example, when the Timing is set
to 1/16, you can move back 24 ticks every time you press STEP >. If you press this button
while holding down the GO TO key, you can locate the position directly before or after an
entered event.
•
The GO TO Key:
This key is used to move to a specific position within the sequence. When pressed, the
following screen is displayed:
