NOTES
Notes can be recorded in when in Live Recording mode. If chords are
played into audio tracks these are recorded per track for each note. MIDI
tracks are polyphonic and operate differently. Parameter automation can
also be recorded into note steps.
▌ BASIC LIVE RECORDING PROCESS
1. Select the tracks to record into by pressing the function pad [Select] for
the respective tracks. Rows represent tracks. The Track will illuminate
blue and the track select function button bright green.
2. Press [Live Rec] Screen button. Live recording mode will be applied
indicated by the red tag on the display.
3. Press [Play] to play the pattern so real-time recording can be
performed. The cursor will be red when in live recording mode. If a track
is longer than 16 steps, the playhead will follow / scroll to the next steps
in the next page which may not be visible.
4. To record notes use either an external MIDI controller connected to
Play+ or use the internal ‘View’ keyboard. Note that tapping a grid pad
will exit the track selection.
5. Press [View] to select the view keyboard mode. The four right side pad
columns will revert to the view keyboard controller. The pads will
illuminate yellow. The upper green row controls the keyboard octave
transposition.
6. Playing the view controller will record notes only into the selected
tracks. Play+ has 8 audio tracks and as such chords recorded in will
apply each note of the chord to a single track. For example, a triad
chord will take up 3 of the 8 tracks.
7. To record a parameter change:-
• Double tap a parameter knob while playing in record mode to
change the highlighted parameter. When the knob is touched or
moved the parameter changes will overwrite the current step data.
• Parameter changes are only recorded into note steps.
• Tap a knob to view its parameter setting. This will show a moving
value during playback if automation has been recorded in.
• Quickly double tap the selected parameter, left side screen button to
reset its value to its default setting.
