TRITON Training Guide

Note: "Put" pattern to track differs from "Copy" pattern to track in that the only note memory consumed is for the original pattern length - each time you "Put" a pattern, the sequencer points to the pattern itself. "Copy" pattern actually copies the note data from the pattern to the track.

13.Press the EXIT key to return to the P0: Play/REC page.

14.Press START/STOP. The pattern will play 4 bars, then stop, and the song will reset to measure 001.

Now to set a Play Loop for Track 1:

15.Let's insert some measures first - press the MENU key, then press P5: Track Edit. Press the Track Edit Page menu button (upper - right), and press Insert Measure from the popup menu.

16.Press Length: 001, and use the Numeric keys and ENTER key to set the length value to 32, then press OK. (Because the song is currently only 4 bars long, you need to add some measures in order for the Play Loop function to work - 32 measures should be plenty, right?)

17.Press the EXIT key to return to the Play / REC page.

18.Press the PlyLoop 1-8tab at the bottom of the display, then press the Track Play Loop checkbox below Drums (1st column).

19.In the Drums (Track 1) Loop End Measure field, set the value to 004. Press the START/STOP key, and the Track 1 will Play Loop continually - so you can rehearse and record additional tracks!

Rehearse and record the Bass track:

20.Press the START/STOP key to stop playback, then press the LOCATE key to reset the sequencer to measure 001:01.000 (upper - left).

21.Press the Track Select popup button (below the song name field), then press Track02: Bass from the popup menu. Press START/STOP and rehearse your Bass track a bit…then press START/STOP, then LOCATE - to stop playback and rese t the song to measure 1.

22.Press the REC/WRITE key - you'll hear the metronome and the sequencer is in stand - by mode.

23.Press START/STOP - you'll hear 2 bars of metronome precount before recording begins - record a Bass track for at least16 bars. If you make a mistake or want to re-record the Bass track, press STOP/START to stop playback, then press the COMPARE key, and begin again from step 22. You can use the COMPARE function as many times as needed on the track you're currently working with - until you're happy with the recording.

24.When you've finished recording the Bass track, press START/STOP to playback the song. Let's say you really like measures 5-8of the Bass track:
