Korg 01/W pro - Page 30

Let's try recording this variation after the phrase you just recorded. To
do this, you will want to record the third and fourth measures of the
song, leaving the first measures you recorded as they are. This is
where the technique known as auto punch-in recording comes in
handy. This technique lets you specify one or more measures to be
recorded. It is commonly used to re-record parts of a song that didn't
turn out quite right. Press the REC/WRITE key, then move the cursor
to the second line from the bottom, press cursor key [E], and set the
Rec Mode parameter to AUTP. Set Rec Start Measure (cursor key
[F]) to 3, and Rec End Measure (cursor key [G]) to 4.
Finally, set the Location measure to 1. Now when you press the
START/STOP key, the 01/W pro will start playing the phrase you've
already recorded, beginning at measure 1. When it reaches the third
measure, it will automatically begin recording. Play the new variation,
then press the START/STOP key once you're past measure 4. As
before, the 01/W pro will automatically return to the measure that you
began recording at. You can press the START/STOP key at this point
to listen to the notes you just recorded.

The image created by the combination of these phrases and the
sound we've selected to play them with might inspire you to attempt
more complex arrangements. Let's try adding harmony to the mel-
ody, using a slightly different brass sound.

Move the cursor to the second line from the bottom, then press cursor
key |B} and set the Track to 2. Let's try using “BO2 Brass 2” for this
track. If the word MUTE is displayed for track 1, change it to PLAY at
this point. Then press cursor key [E] on the 2nd line from the bottom
and change the Rec Mode parameter to OVWR, making sure that the
Location Measure parameter (cursor key [C]) on the same line is set
to 1. Now press the REC/WRITE key, followed by the START/STOP
key. The 01/W pro will begin recording after the two-measure count-
down. When you're done recording, press the START/STOP key as
before. How does it sound? Did the harmony turn out all right? Fi-
nally, let's add a little bass to the recording.
