Oberheim DX - Step Recording Mode

SOPHISTICATION
STEP RECORDING
STEP enables Recording a Sequence one step at a time. STEP advances at a rate
determined by the Quantize Value. Normally the Quantize Value is set to a sixteenth
note
, but this can be
changed-see QUANTIZE. From
stop, pressing STEP places you
at the beginning of the sequence. To program a drum on a particular step, press the
desired drum button while that step is displayed. Every time any drum button or
either
arrow button is pressed
, the sequence
advances
one step. To record several drums on
one step, hold the RECORD key while pressing the desired drum buttons
- this keeps
the DX trom advancing to th
e next step. To exit step mode
. press STEP once again. If
you press STEP while in PLAY or RECORD
. the sequence will step from its present
location and go back to play or record when STEP is pressed again.

key will slowly play through the sequence.

Record key will light ff recording is attempted.
