Song Mode and Sequencing

FixLen
The song does not continue recording past the end point of the song—recording automatically
stops at the end point.
Loop
While song status is RECORDING, the song will play the data between 1 : 1 and the end point
over and over. This enables you to overdub in each pass if the Mode parameter on the MAIN
page in Song mode is set to Merge. Make sure the Mode parameter is set to Merge if you intend
to overdub in Loop Record, or else each consecutive pass in Loop RecMode will erase the data
recorded on the previous pass.
While recording in Loop mode, you can selectively erase existing note events:
1. Press and hold the enter button.
2. Press and hold the key corresponding to the note you want to erase. All occurrences of the
note you’re holding get erased
3. Release the key and the enter button to stop erasing.
This feature works only for unsaved tracks. Once you save the song, you can no longer erase
notes this way.
UnLoop
When recording in UnLoop Mode, existing tracks play as if they were looping from Bar 1 : Beat 1
to the end point. At the same time, they get re-recorded linearly (without loops) until you press
Stop. This makes it easy to record a linear track over a looped section:
1. Set RecMode to Loop, and record a short track (say, two bars of percussion).
2. Set RecMode to Unloop, then go to the MAIN page and change the recording track.
3. Begin recording the new track. The percussion track repeats as if you were still in Loop
mode, but both track get recorded without loops.
4. Press Stop to stop recording. The song’s end point gets redefined as the nearest downbeat
of the (empty) bar immediately following the last bar you were recording when you
pressed Stop.
Auto
Set RecMode to Auto for punch-in recording, (either in Merge or Erase mode), on a track
between the bars and beats defined in AutoIn and AutoOut. To punch in and continue recording
until you press Stop, set the AutoOut point before the AutoIn point.
PlayMode
The PlayMode setting, along with the end point, determines how songs are played back.
