Chapter 6 Creating Rhythm Sets

Copying Settings from Some Other Rhythm Tone

The Rhythm Tone settings in a Rhythm Set you select can be copied to the current Rhythm tone. This can save you a great deal of time and effort when editing sounds.

2.Press [SYSTEM/UTILITY], getting its indicator to start blinking.

*If the indicator is steadily lit, you are in SYSTEM mode. Press [SYSTEM/UTILITY] once again, so the indicator is blinking.

3.Press [F6 (Menu)] to select Menu 1.

4.Press [F2 (Copy)].

5.Press [ ]/[ ]/[ ]/[ ] to move the cursor to “Type.”

6.Turn the VALUE dial to select “Key.”

7.Press [ ]/[ ]/[ ]/[ ] to move the cursor to the parameter you want to set.

8.Either by rotating the VALUE dial or by pressing [INC]/ [DEC], set the value.

9.Press [F6 (Copy)] to initiate the copy.

*Press TONE SELECT [1] - [4] in the Key Selection parameter to select the percussion instrument (key) you want to set.

TONE SELECT [1]: Selects the key one octave below the currently selected key.

TONE SELECT [2]: Selects the key a semitone below the currently selected key.

TONE SELECT [3]: Selects the key a semitone above the currently selected key.

TONE SELECT [4]: Selects the key one octave above the currently selected key.

*You can also press a key on a connected MIDI keyboard to select the percussion instrument sound (key). (p. 168)

Patch Name Copy

You can copy the Patch name by setting the value to “NAME” in Step 6 above.

Compare Function

You can use the Compare function during the Rhythm Key Copy operation.

The Compare function allows you to play the Rhythm Tone currently occupying the copy source. To do so, press [F1 (Compare)] to access the Rhythm Compare page. The new Rhythm Tone can also be selected from the Rhythm Compare page. However, it is not possible to select patches from XP-A through F. After selecting a rhythm tone, press [F1] again to return to the previous page.

*The Compare function cannot be used if a Rhythm Tone of the temporary area (Temporary Patch) is selected as the copy-source Rhythm Tone.

*Please be aware that when the Compare function plays a Rhythm Tone, it may sound slightly different than when it is played normally.
