Creating a Rhythm Pattern
There are two ways to create a rhythm pattern. The first is Step Recording, in which you use the step keys to create the rhythm as you view the lit/unlit condition of the keys. The second is Realtime Recording, in which you strike the part keys at the timing at which you want to record each note. If you wish to erase the rhythm of each part before you create your own rhythm data, refer to p.43 "Erasing rhythm data from a part."
• Using the step keys (Step Recording)
In this method, you use the sixteen step keys to create the rhythm pattern while watching the lit/unlit condition of the keys to verify the rhythm.
For details refer to p.18 "Using the step keys to edit the rhythm (Step Recording)," in section 3. Basic operation (Quick Start).
•Using the part keys (Realtime Recording)
For details refer to p.19 "Using the part keys to edit the rhythm (Realtime Recording)," in section 3. Basic operation (Quick Start).

3. The amount of the accent is adjusted by the Level knob in the |
part edit section. Rotating the knob toward the right will in- |
crease the difference between on and off. If the knob is ro- |
tated all the way toward the left, there will be no effect. Play |
back the pattern to hear the results as you make this setting. |

Accent Level
Pressing the Accent part key by itself will not produce sound. Also, if a part key is struck to play the sound, it will be sounded with Accent on (i.e., the emphasized sound). If you wish to hear the results of Accent, you need to play back the pattern.
