SEQUENCER mode
506
• When Beat or Measure are selected, pattern playback
will begin when you press the first key. The second and
subsequent patterns that are triggered from the keyboard
will synchronize to the pattern that was started by the
first key; with a setting of Beat they will synchronize in
steps of a beat, and with a setting of Measure they will
synchronize in steps of a measure.
• When SEQ is selected, the pattern will playback in
synchronization with the measures of the sequencer
song. The pattern will synchronize with the currently-
playing song, so you must start the song before you play
notes on the keyboard.
• Beat, Measure, and SEQ will cause the pattern to start
immediately if you play the key within a thirty-second
note of the timing of the respective beat or measure, but
if you play the key later than this, the start of the pattern
will be delayed by a beat.
Information
This area shows the bank, name, and number of the program
that’s selected for the track.
Stopping playback of a RPPR pattern
By pressing C2 (or any note lower than C2), all the patterns
being played by RPPR will stop.
The patterns of keys whose Sync setting is Off will stop
immediately, but the playback of other keys will stop at the
beginning of the next beat or measure. Pattern playback of
keys whose Sync setting is other than Off can be stopped
immediately by rapidly pressing C2 or any lower note twice
in succession.
Copy
This copies the Assign, Pattern Bank, Pattern, Track,
Mode, Shift, and Sync settings of the selected KEY into a
copy buffer.
Paste
This pastes the settings from the copy buffer (obtained by
Copy) into the selected KEY.
Example: Assigning Patterns to Keys
Before you begin, assign a drum Program to MIDI track 1.
1. Touch the Assign box for C#2, so that it’s enabled. Set
the Pattern Bank to Preset, the Pattern to P001, and
the Track to MIDI Track 01.
Since you’ve been working with C#2’s parameters, the
KEY will be set to C#2.
2. With KEY still set to C#2, press Copy.
3. Touch the Pattern Name for D2, and then press the
Paste button.
The Assign, Pattern Bank, Pattern, Track, Mode,
Shift, and Sync settings from step 1 will be copied into
D2.
4. With D2’s Pattern Name still selected, press the +
button to change it to P002.
5. Touch D#2’s Pattern Name, and then press the Paste
button.
The settings from step 1 will be copied into D#2.
6. Similar to step 4, set D#2’s Pattern to P003.
As you can see, if the patterns that you want to assign to the
keys are numbered consecutively (or are nearby each other),
and use the same track, Copy and Paste can really speed up
the process of assigning patterns to keys.
