Roland V-Synth owner manual Creating a Pattern by Playing in Real Time Real Rec

Playing in Patch Mode

0, 32, 64, 96, 127, Tie/Clr

When inputting notes: When you touch one of these buttons, a note with the velocity shown on that button will be input at the cursor location within the pattern input area. When you touch <Tie>, a tie will be input at the cursor location.

When inputting control changes: A control change with the value shown on that button will be input at the cursor location within the pattern input area. When you touch <Clr>, the selected control change will be erased.

When you are editing, these buttons modify the velocity of the note that is selected in the pattern input area, or the value of the control change.

You can also input the note velocity or control change value by using the VALUE dial or [INC/+][DEC/-].

Controller

When you operate the Time Trip pad (TTPadX/Y), D Beam controller (DBeamL/R), or assignable controllers (Ctrl_1/2), the value is shown here.

Grid

Specifies the note value that will correspond to “one step” of the arpeggio pattern.

(Quarter note), (Eighth note), (Dotted eighth note),

(Sixteenth note), (Dotted sixteenth note), (Thirty-second note)

End Point

Specifies the pattern length as a number of steps (1–32).

Clear

Erases the pattern data (p. 27).

Real Rec (Realtime Recording)

Use realtime recording to create a pattern (p. 26).

Step Rec (Step Recording)

Use step recording to create a pattern (p. 27).

Creating a Pattern by Playing in Real Time (Real Rec)

This method lets you create a pattern in a way similar to realtime recording on a sequencer. Your playing on the V-Synth’s keyboard and your controller operations will be recorded “as is.”

1.Specify the Grid and End Point of the arpeggio pattern that you will be creating.

Move the cursor to each value box and set the value.

2.Touch <Real Rec>.

The V-Synth will be in realtime-input standby mode, and the metronome will sound a guide rhythm.

3.If you want to adjust the tempo, turn ARPEGGIO [TEMPO].

Turn the knob toward the right to make the tempo faster, or toward the left to make it slower.

4.In time with the guide rhythm sounded by the metronome, play the V-Synth’s keyboard and operate the controllers.

You can repeatedly record over the pattern length (number of steps) you specified in step 1. On each pass, you can add new notes and control changes to build up the pattern.

The notes (specified pitches) and control changes in a single pattern cannot exceed a total of 16. All further (seventeenth and later) notes having a new pitch or control changes will not be recorded.

5.When you are finished with realtime input, touch <Stop>.

The metronome guide will stop sounding.

6.Press ARPEGGIO [ON/OFF] to turn on the arpeggiator, and play the keyboard to hear your realtime-recorded pattern.
