Owner’s Manual
Set the Type to “overdub” then set the Loop to “on.” These
settings let you repeat the pattern recording in a “loop” and
record additional note events without deleting already-
recorded data.
Set other parameters as necessary. See page 243 for details.
Call up the display for setting a Voice by pressing the [F2]
VOICE button. You won’t need to make settings in this display
if you’ve already completed Voice/Mixing settings in step #2
above.
When a Drum Voice is selected, for example, try recording the
rhythm pattern shown below.
As shown in the example below, notes that you record will
play back from the next repetition (loop), letting you record
while hearing previously recorded material.
This operation exits from the Pattern Record mode to the
Pattern Play mode.

lights), then select the desired track from the
number buttons [1] - [16].

to use during recording in the [F2] VOICE
display.
