The sequencer
Sequencers record
musical
data
received from
MIDI
devices.
Sequencers do
not
record
the
"sound" of a
musical performance, but
rather "the
musical
performance
itself"; i.e.,
data
describing
which notes were pressed and
how
hard, and
how pedals
or controllers
were used.
Sequencer
tracks.
The
on-board sequencer
of the
JV-1
000 has a
total
of ten tracks;
eight
phrase tracks,
one
rhythm track, and one
tempo track. Each
track
records
musical "data" from a
MIDI
instrument.

Phrase tracks
The
phrase tracks record musical
data
that describes
which sound
(instrument) was
played
when, at what pitch, at what volume,
held for
how long, etc.
There
are
eight
such
phrase tracks, and each can record 16
independent
musical parts
(MIDI
channels
1
—
1 6).
This
means
that
when
using all
eight of the
tracks, you
can create
songs
which
use
1 28 musical parts
(1
6
parts x
8
tracks).
•
The
rhythm track
The
rhythm track records musical data
for drums and
percussion
instruments (a
Rhythm
Set).
In the
JV-1000's
sequencer, you create
the
rhythm part by
arranging
Rhythm
Patterns in the rhythm track. (Each rhythm
pattern is
one
measure long.)

The tempo track
The tempo
track records changes
in tempo.
This track does
not contain data
that plays
instrumental
parts.
About
songs
A set of data in the ten
tracks of
the sequencer
is
called
a "Song."
Each song can be
given a title and saved on
a floppy
disk. A song
saved on a disk is
called a "Song
File,"
and
one
disk can
accommodate
a maximum
of 1
08
such files.
