Step Recording (Loop Type)
Here, you can perform step recording into a pattern.
This is available when a user pattern is selected.
1. In Pattern (Pattern Bank) and Pattern Select, specify the
pattern.
By default, the pattern length is one measure. If you wish to
change the number of measures in the pattern, set the
Pattern Parameter.
2. Select “Step Recording (Loop Type)” to open the dialog
box.
3. The remaining steps are the same as when step record-
ing on a track.
Refer to steps 3 and following in Step Recording (see “Step
Recording” on page 195). However, step recording a pattern
differs from step recording a track in that when you reach
the end of the pattern, you will return to the beginning and
continue recording, in this way continuing to add more
data.
Event Edit
Here, you can edit individual events of the musical data in a
pattern.
Use Pattern and Pattern Select to specify the pattern, and
then select this command.
The remaining steps are the same as when Event Editing a
track. For more information, please see “Event Edit” on
page 196.
Pattern Parameter
This command specifies the number of measures and the
time signature of the selected pattern.
1. Use Pattern and Pattern Select to specify the pattern.
2. Select “Pattern Parameter” to open the dialog box.
3. In Length, specify the number of measures in the pat-
tern.
4. In Meter, specify the time signature of the pattern.
However, this time signature is only temporary, and when
you “put” or “copy” the pattern in a track of a song, the
pattern will play according to the time signature of that
measure.
Erase Pattern
This command erases the data from the selected pattern.
1. Use Pattern and Pattern Select to specify the pattern.
2. Select “Erase Pattern” to open the dialog box.
3. If you check All Patterns, all user patterns in the song
will be erased.
If All Patterns is not checked, only the pattern specified in
step 1 will be erased.
Copy Pattern
This command copies the settings and musical data of the
selected pattern to another pattern.
User patterns belong to a particular song, but you can use
the Copy Pattern command to use the same pattern in
another song.
Although preset patterns cannot be edited, you can copy a
preset pattern to a user pattern. There, you can edit and save
it as a user pattern. Be aware that when you execute the
Copy Pattern operation, the pattern settings and musical
data of the copy destination will be erased.
1. In From (Song***): Pattern, specify the copy source pat-
tern. (By default, this will be the song and pattern that
was selected in the Pattern Edit page.)
2. In To: Song and Pattern, specify the copy destination
song and pattern.
For Pattern, only user patterns U00–U99 can be specified.
