Using the MC-09 as a synthesizer

Creating a phrase (Recording)

You can step-input (record) a phrase of up to two measures. The MC-09 provides two recording methods. Use the method that is most appropriate for your situation.

* Notes are the only MIDI messages that can be recorded.

Step recording

In this method, you successively input the note for each step.

TR recording

In this method, you first specify the note that you want to input, and then “place” that note at the desired step while you listen to the playback.

This method is suitable for creating drum phrases, since you can input all notes for each rhythm tone (e.g., bass drum, snare drum, hi-hat) at once.
