Time to RECORD!

Moving or Deleting User Memory Spaces:

Deleting all motifs in a pattern simultaneously:

Following the dial twiddling and dice throwing we come to the most exciting part of the Edit-motif

menu: the recording and editing of your own ideas.

Depending on the part you have selected with your 7 part-Keys (from kick to synth-3) the Sirius has 3

different recording modes available:

1. Realtime recording - works on all 7 Parts (tracks)

2. Step-recording - works on Parts (tracks) synth-1 to synth-3

3. Drumgrid-recording (for drum-Parts (tracks) kick, snare, hihat and percussion).

The Record mode you select depends entirely on personal taste. Each type of recording has its own

particular advantages and uses.

Before you start recording new things you need to select an empty User motif or even a completely

empty user pattern. As you know, you recognise an empty motif by the "*" sign before the motif num-

ber in the track display. If you are in the JAM mode empty tracks are also signified with an asterisk.

In the following example, all 7 parts (tracks) of the selected pattern are still empty:

Press the EDIT-key. Use the right hand PAGE/BANK-key to access page 2 of the Edit-menu. Hit the F1

key (Pattern). You will now see the following display:

Press the F3-key and select the user area. With the VALUE/TEMPO-dial select a pattern you wish to

delete (initialise). The display will show for instance:

After confirming (ok) with the F3-key, select and edit the desired parameters. The pattern is automat-

ically stored in the Sirius' RAM (temporary memory) block (the original user-pattern will still remain

untouched in its original User-storage bank).

Now press the Write-key and use the PAGE/BANK-keys to select page 6:

Confirm with key F1 and then press the EDIT-key to get back to the Edit-pattern menu.

As you can see now the motif information for all 7 tracks is deleted. The Sound data remains the

same. Please note the following: When you leave the edit-menu by pressing the EXIT key the pattern

is still not stored and will revert to the original untouched pattern when you call it up again. So don’t

forget to save it!!
