• Using the Tap Tempo key to change the tempo

While a song or pattern is playing, press the Tap key three times or more at the desired tempo. The ES-1will detect the interval at which you pressed the Tap key, and will set the tempo accordingly. The tempo can also be changed in this way even if the ES-1is not currently playing a song or pattern.

Use the cursor [▲][▼] keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate Tempo, and the tempo you modified will appear in the display.

Three times or more

Striking keys to play Parts

By striking the part keys, you can play the corresponding sounds.

The audio-in parts will sound when an audio signal is connected to the audio input jacks. (☞p.22, "Connecting various sources to the audio in- puts.") However even if sound is being input, it will not be heard if Audio In Thru is turned on.

The sound of a part consists of an assigned sample that has been modified or processed, and will differ for each pattern. Rotate the dial to select vari- ous patterns, and listen to the wide variety of sounds.

Pressing the Accent Part key will not cause the Accent part to sound. If the sample assigned to sample part 1 or 3 is stereo, sample parts 2 or 4 will not sound. It is not possible to play both sample parts 6A and 6B simultaneously, or both 7A and 7B simultaneously. It is not possible to play a part to which a sample of “oFF” is assigned.

•Sample parts (1—5, 6A-6B, 7A-B): A sample sound and a rhythm pattern.

•Slice Sample part: A sample sound and a rhythm pattern.

•Audio In part: A rhythm pattern for the external input.

•Accent part: A rhythm pattern that specifies the points of emphasis (accents) for the entire pattern. The sound can be modified independently for each part, and the rhythm pattern, effect on/off settings, and motion sequence etc. are also stored individually for each part (☞p.35 “Editing the sound of a part”).
