Selecting Drum Sound E liting
Because the SQ-R has two types of sounds, it also has two Sound Edit modes;
one which pertains to Standard sound editing and one for editing Drum sounds.
In order to create or edit a Drum sound, you must use the Drum edit mode.
There are two methods for entering the Drum edit mode:
♦ Change Sound Mode Command — This is the standard method for switching
sound edit modes. Located in both Standard sound edit mode and Drum
sound edit modes, this command allows access into the other sound edit
mode. The Change Sound Mode command is located in the Wave banks of
both Sound Edit modes.
• Selecting Sounds — A second method for sound mode hopping is the simple
process of selecting sounds. The currently selected sound determines the
sound edit mode. You can enter the Drum edit mode by selecting a drum
sound, then pressing the Edit Sound button.
Sound Edit Mode
Whenever you want to do any editing to a sound you must first place the SQ-R
into Sound Edit Mode. This is accomplished by pressing the Edit Sound
button. Once in Sound Edit Mode you can modify parameters of a sound to better
suit your needs or create a completely new sound.
The parameters in Drum Sound Edit Mode are arranged into five Banks. Each
Bank contains a series of Screens that feature one or more editable parameters.
Holding down the Bank Select button displays the name of the current bank
while the button is held, returning to the previous display once the button has
been released. If the Up or Down Arrow buttons are pressed while the
Bank Select is held, the previous or next bank within that mode will be
displayed and selected.
Additionally, once within in a particular bank, holding down the Bank Select
button and pressing the Left or Right Arrow button takes you through the
individual screens within that bank.
