Chapter 7. Playing and Creating Songs
Creating a song
(Song Recording)
You can input patterns one by one to specify the order in
which the patterns will be played back. The playback order
of the patterns is indicated by a number called the step.
1. Press [SONG] to enter Song mode.
2. Turn [VALUE] to select the song number that you
wish to create.
3. Press [ ].
[ ] will light, and the D2 will be in SONG REC mode.
4. Turn [VALUE] to select the pattern that will play back
for this step.
5. As necessary, edit the setup parameters (p. 20) such
as the mute and patch setting of each part.
6. Press [ENTER] to proceed to the next step.
7. Repeat steps 4–6 to input the pattern for the second
and subsequent steps.
8. After you have input the last step, press [ ] to end
the procedure.
<Auditioning a pattern>
During recording, you can select a pattern and press [ ] to
audition that pattern.
<Modifying and registering setup parameters>
If you have modified setup parameters (p. 20) such as part
mute and effect settings during song recording, you can
press [ENTER] to register the modified state of these settings.
This merely registers the pattern setup parameters as song
data, and does not affect the original patterns.
You can use this function to change the mute settings or MFX
type of a pattern, or to make a song in which a pattern
develops gradually.
<Editing a step>
After recording several steps, you can use [ ][ ] in
SONG REC mode to move between steps.
Deleting an unwanted step
(Step Delete)
You can delete an unwanted step from a song, joining the
prior and subsequent portions of the song.
