Parameter
Value Explanation
Note Type
[E3] knob
1/64 ( )–
2/1 ( )
Specifies the note length (step time) of the notes to
enter. The note length is the length from one note-
on to the next note-on. This step time length is also
used when entering a rest or tie.
Gate Time
[E4] knob
1–100%
Specifies the gate time as a proportion of the note
type. The gate time is the length from note-on to
note-off. Use a low value to produce staccato, or
a high value to produce tenuto or slurs. Normally
you’ll use a setting of approximately “80%.”
Velocity
[E5] knob
REAL,
1–127
Specifies the force with which the key is played. If
you want the velocity of your actual keystroke to be
used, choose “REAL.”
Otherwise specify the desired velocity, using p
(piano) = 60, mf (mezzo forte) = 90, and f (forte) =
120 as approximate guidelines.
5.
Play one note on the keyboard.
The note is recorded at step 1, and the input position in the
screen automatically advances by the length of the step time.
You can record a chord by playing multiple notes simultaneously.
6.
Repeat steps 4–5 to record each step.
You can use the following functions while recording.
Menu Explanation
[E1] REST Enters a rest.
STEP BACK [E2]
Deletes the step data, returning to the input
location one step earlier.
Step [E6] knob Changes the input location.
<TIE> Inputs a tie.
<UNTIE> Deletes the tie that was input immediately before.
If you step-record beyond the specified length of the pattern, the
recording parameter “Length” is automatically adjusted.
