Editing on the fly by recording

Adding notes in realtime

To add notes to an existing part, press the [Merge] field so that it is displayed in white, select the track, and start recording by pressing the [REC ●] field and the [START/STOP] button. Play the notes where you want them to sound.

Note: Do not forget to select the desired Division, Mode, and Type (see page 165).

Adding controller data in realtime

To add controller data (modulation, Pitch Bend, Hold, expression) to an existing part, press the [Merge] field so that it is displayed in white. Operate the controller (Pitch Bend lever, modulation lever, optional DP-2, DP-6, or FS-5U footswitch for Hold data, optional EV-5 or BOSS FV-300L or EV-10 foot controller for expression data) where needed.

Note: Do not forget to select the right Division, Mode, and Type (see page 165).

Adding or changing settings of existing parts

The following operations require that you record in [Merge] mode without touching the keyboard or con- trollers, select the track and division whose settings you wish to change, press the [Merge] field, and start recording. Unless you wish to program continuous value changes (Panpot data, for example), you can stop recording after the first beat. Static settings are always written at the beginning of the track in ques- tion, so there is no need to record an entire cycle.

Tone/Drum Set selection— To select another Tone or Drum Set for an existing User Style track, proceed as follows:

1.Press the [Tone] field in the left column, and select the Track you wish to assign another Tone or Drum Set to.

2.Press the [Track] field and use the [TEMPO/DATA] dial to select the desired track.
