Introduction
We'd like to take a moment to thank you for purchasing the
Rodgers PR-300 Digital Sequencer and Sound Module.
About
this
Manual
If
this is the first time you have used the PR-300, please
be
sure
to read "Listening to a Song on Disk" thoroughly. It contains
information on how to listen to the songs recorded on the demo
disk and
and
make use
of
some
of
the PR-300's convenient
features.
PR-300
Features
Easy to Use
The sequencer is set up to operate like a regular tape recorder.
This makes recording and playback easy.
Five Track Sequencer
You can record and playback using any
of
five sequencer tracks.
GS
Sound Source
The PR-300 has a built-in sound source that conforms to the new
GS
Format. Essentially what this means is that different sound
sources (keyboards or sound modules) that conform to the
OS
Format will all play the same song data in the same way and
respond to the same MIDI messages
in
a uniform manner.

The
PR-300
features an
easy-to-use
5-track
sequencer
for
recording and playback, as well as a 16-part multi-timbral
GS
sound source. The PR-300 was specifically designed for use
with Rodgers organs and keyboards, although
it
can
be
used
successfully with many different MIDI devices.
This section is followed "Sequencing with the PR-300" which
shows you how
to record your own songs. Everything from easy
"single-pass"
recording
to
more
advanced
"multi-track"
recording is covered.

of
this
manual

descriptions
of
all
remaining PR-300 features and supplies technical information
