Selecting a song

Song

S01...S16

Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate

Song.

Rotate the dial to select one of the sixteen songs S01 to S16.

Setting the playback tempo

Tempo

20.0...300.0

• Using the dial to set the tempo

Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate Tempo. Rotate the dial to set the tempo.

If you wish to change the tempo units below the decimal place, hold down the Shift key and rotate the dial.

• Using the tap tempo key to set the tempo

While the song is playing, strike the Tap key three times or more in succession at the desired tempo. The ES-1will calculate the interval at which the Tap key was pressed, and will set the tempo accordingly. The tempo can be set in the same way even when playback is stopped.

When you use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate Tempo, and the tempo you modified will appear in the display.

If you modify the tempo of a song but then switch to an- other song without Writing, the first song will return to its original tempo. If you wish to keep the tempo setting you modified, you must perform the Write operation (☞p.52 "Saving a song").

Playing a song (Song Play)

Press the Play/Pause key to begin playing the song. The song will begin playing from the pattern of the currently selected position. When the song ends, playback will automatically stop.

It is not possible to save edited sounds in a song. Please use Pattern mode to edit sounds.

What is Position?

"Position" refers to the playback or recording order of the pat- terns within the song, and is the unit by which you edit a song.
