If you are in pattern play mode, press the [___] below
“toSONG” to move to song play mode.
(1) Select the song number you want to create. Make
sure that the cursor is located at “ > SONG”, and
select a song 1—8. Songs that have already been

number.

Pressing the [___] below “ > EXIT” will return you
to the previous display.

This is where you create a rhythm song. Parts for
which no data has been input will be indicated by
a blinking “= PTN ***”.

the left “=” and “-»”. When creating a new song,
be sure to start with part 001.

When entering repeat, volume change, tempo
change, or mark data instead of a pattern, press the
{__] keys below the right “<—” and “—” while the
“ = Pattern ***” display is blinking. The [___| keys
below the right “<<” and “>” will step through
“= PTN** | xO", “Vol +0”, “T +0/0",
and “Mark {]”.
Select the data you want, and specify a number
(repeat times, or amount of volume change) if nec-
essary. Use the [__] keys below the right “<<” and
“+” to move between the tempo change settings
“value” and “beats”.
An example is shown in the following display.
(6) Repeat steps (4) and (5) to specify the patterns for
each part. The next section will explain how to delete
a part that was entered by mistake, or to insert a
new part between previously entered parts.
(7) When you have finished creating the rhythm song,
press the [___] below “>EXIT” twice. This ends
rhythm song editing, and returns to song play mode.
