■ Recording a rhythm pattern created by Arpeggio
playback to a Pattern track
The Arpeggio function is a virtually endless source of creative
inspiration, putting a huge variety of rhythm patterns, riffs and
phrases at your fingertips — patterns that change depending
on the notes you play. Once you come with some patterns
you like and want to use in a Song, you can record them to a
Pattern track.
You can make changes to the Voice settings after entering the
Record mode (in step #5 below). However, if you intend to
make detailed settings to the Mixing parameters, you should
do so before enabling recording.
1 Enter the Mixing Edit mode ([MIXING] →→
→→
[EDIT]), select the
desired Part (track to be recorded), then press the [F1] VOICE
button, followed by the [SF2] MODE button.
2 Set the ArpSwitch (Arpeggio Switch) parameter to “on.”
3 Call up the Arpeggio Type selection display ([COMMON] →→
→→
[F3]
ARP →→
→→
[SF1] TYPE).
4 Select the desired Arpeggio type in the [SF1] TYPE display,
then press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button (the lamp lights).
Try out various Arpeggio types, and also try tweaking various
parameters in the [SF1] - [SF4] displays. When you find a
rhythm or phrase that you like and want to use, go to step #4.
For details about how to select a track, see page 58.
Set Type to “replace” and set Loop to “off.”
Set other parameters as necessary. See page 243 for details.
