by using the Beat Exchange function (this is described later in this chapter).

NOTE:
An
understanding
of
the
QUANTIZE
function,
described
later
in
this
chapter,
is
essential
for
effective
use
of
the
step
write
function.
We
recommend
that
before
actually
trying
out
the
step
write
function
you
should
read
through
the
QUANTIZE
section
(on
the
page
17).
Then
come
back
to
this
section
and
try out the function.
While
the
Real
Time
Write
function,
described
above,
lets
you
input
rhythm
patterns
in
real
time
by
playing
on
the
instrument
keys,
the
Step
Write
function
is
used
to
input
notes
one
at
a
time.
This
method
is
ideal
for
programming
rhythm
patterns
from
written
scores,
or
from
the
pattern
charts
provided
in
the
RX21
PATTERN
BOOK
accompanying
this
manual.
it
also
makes
it
possible
to
input
complex
rhythm
patterns
that
would
be
extremely
difficult
to
program
using
the
real
time
method.
First,
select
the
pattern
number
you
wish
to
program
(numbers
00
through
55
only:
patterns
56
through
99
are
permanent
preset
patterns
and
cannot
be
re-
programmed,
although
you
can
edit
the
preset
patterns
to
produce
new
patterns,
as
we'll
explain
in
the
PATTERN
COPY
section
later
in
this
chapter).
Also,
ensure
(by
playing
back
if
necessary)
that
the
selected
pattern
number
does
not contain
a
pattern,
if
you
want
to
avoid
losing
an
existing
pattern.
Enter
the
step
write
mode
by
pressing
the
STEP
WRITE
button.
The
LCD
will
give
the
following
indication:
"STEP
1=/,0=1/99”
(//
being
the
pattern
length,
and
qq
being
the
quantize
rate).
If
you
have
selected
a
pattern
number
that
already
contains
data,
a
square
black
cursor
will
flash
at
the
left
side
of
the
LCD.
№
you
have
selected
a
preset
pattern
number,
the
cursor
will
flash
in
the
center
of
the
LCD.
In
the
latter
case
you
should
press
PLAY
again
and
select
another
pattern
number.
