Chapter 3 Recording Your Performance (Sequencer)

You can record your performance in the sequencer.
On the HPD-15, your performance will be recorde exactly as
you play it (Realtime Recording).
The HPD-15’s sequencer consists of four parts (Percussion 1,
Percussion 2, Melody 1, Melody 2). The collective
performance of these four parts is called a pattern.
Preset patterns (pattern P01–P99)
What the various parts should play has already been
recorded.
User patterns (pattern U01–U99)
These are patterns that you can record.
