4.Use the MEAS and buttons to select the measure.

This step is not necessary if you are recording from measure 1 of a blank track.

5.Use the CURSOR < and > buttons to move the cursor to the note position (dot) you are going to store.

Each dot represents one-eighth of a quarter- note (a thirty-second note).

When storing triplets, it may not be possible to match the timing exactly with the 1/32-note steps. However, if you select triplet-type notes for the note length (LENGTH) in step 6 below, the timing is automatically corrected.

6.Use the left LENGTH and buttons to

specify the note value. Select from 3, , 3, , 3, , 3, , , , 2 to 4. (A 3 denotes a

triplet-type note.)

For note values other than these, use the right LENGTH buttons to specify the note value to be added to that which you specified with the left buttons.

Example: To record a dotted quarter-note ( . )

+

7.Use the PHRS and buttons to specify the actual length of the produced sound for the desired legato or staccato effect.

TENU (tenuto): Sound is produced for 95% of the note length.

NORM (normal): 80%

STAC (staccato): 50%

CUTT (cutting): 25%

8.Specify the pitch and velocity of the note by playing the keyboard.

The dot on the display where the note is stored changes to a * mark.

When recording chords, you can store multiple notes at one position.

Any panel setting changes— for example changes in the sound selection, button opera- tion, wheel operation, etc.— are recorded at the cursor position.

When a wheel or dial is operated, the input value is indicated on the display. Confirm that this is the correct value and press the YES button to record the value or the NO button to cancel it.

REST:

To store a rest, after specifying the note LENGTH, press the REST button.

Positions at which nothing is stored are read as rests.

ERS:

If you make a mistake, move the cursor to the error, and after displaying the data you wish to erase, press the ERS button.

BAL:

To specify the volume at the cursor position, after pressing the BAL button, use the VALUE buttons to set the volume (0 to 127).

9.Repeat steps 5 through 8 to continue storing notes.

To input data on another track, press the but- ton for the desired track and repeat the pro- cedure from step 2.

10.When you have finished recording, press the PROGRAM MENUS button to turn it off.

Storing control data

Various control data can be stored at the cursor position.

1.On the STEP RECORD: MELODY display, press the CTL button.

2.Use the CTL and buttons to select the control data you wish to insert.

Select from PAN, KEY SHIFT (COARSE TUNE), TUNING (FINE TUNE), BEND SENS.

3.Use the VALUE and buttons to adjust the numerical value of the setting.

4.Press YES button.
