Roland JV-1000 - The Sequencer; Memory

2.
About
the
J
V-
1000
Memory,
The
sequencer memory
can
accommodate
up
to eight songs.
However,
if the
songs are
long or
contain a lot
of data, fewer
than
eight songs
can be
stored.
When
the
JV-1
000
is
turned off,
all
musical
data in
sequencer
memory
will
be lost,
so
be sure to save important
data
to disk
(p.40).
Sequencers
and
MTRs
(multi-track
recorders)
MTRs allow
you
to
play
back previously
recorded
sound
while
recording
additional
musical
performances. The
eight
phrase
tracks of
the
JV-1
000's sequencer
also
allow
you to do "multi-track" recording.
The
difference
is that
while
an MTR
records
the
sound of
a performance, a
sequencer
digitally
records the
musical
data
(performance
information).

Sequencer
section
Recording musical
data with
a
sequencer
offers
the
following
advantages:
-
The sound
quality will not
diminish,
regardless
of how many
times
you 'overdub.'
-
You can
jump instantly
to
the beginning or
end
of the
song.
-
The playback
tempo
can be
changed without
affecting
the
pitch.
-
The musical
data can
be
freely
edited
after recording.
The
JV-1000's
TAPE SYNC
II IN/OUT
jacks
can be
connected
to an
MTR to
synchronize it with
the
JV-1000's on-board
sequencer.
By
synchronizing
an
MTR
with
the sequencer,
you can add vocals
and
other
acoustic
instruments
to
your MIDI
ensemble (SEQUENCER
MANUAL/p.62).
