During recording, play the note or notes needed to trigger the Arpeggio you found in step #3.
■ Assigning a pre-programmed Phrase to a Pattern track
The Pattern mode also has a versatile Patch function that lets you assign pre-programmed one-track rhythm “Phrases” to each
track. Use the special preset Phrases already in internal memory, or create your own User Phrases — by recording, or loading
Pattern data from the included CD-ROM (Sound Library for MOTIF ES6/MOTIF ES7/MOTIF ES8). Use the Assigning Phrases
function to assemble your original Patterns, with up to 16 tracks.
The instrument provides a total capacity of 256 User Phrases. Keep in mind that these are originally empty and have no data,
unless you record or load data to them.
