■Repeat

Unless the Repeat function is on for the selected pad, playback will end automatically as soon as the end of the phrase is reached. A phrase can be stopped while it is playing by pressing the MULTI PAD [STOP] button.

■Chord Match

If a Multi Pad is played while Auto Accompaniment is playing and the Chord Match function for that pad is ON, the phrase will be automatically re-harmonized to match the accompaniment chords.

Since all Multi Pad data is stored to Flash ROM, all of the factory programmed Multi Pad banks will be replaced by your new settings. If you've deleted the factory-set data, you can use the Restore function (page 154) to load a copy of it from the included disks (page 6).

CAUTION

The Repeat and Chord Match settings for the Multi Pads are stored together in a group of 58 banks. For this rea- son, you should be careful when making edits and storing your edits, since all 58 banks will be overwritten with the new data.

•Bank #59 (factory preset) of the Multi Pads can be used to send various MIDI messages. This convenient feature lets you control the following MIDI functions of an external device by simply pressing the appro- priate Multi Pad.

Pad 1 All Note Off

Pad 2 Reset All Controllers Pad 3 Start(FA)

Pad 4 Stop(FC)

•These MIDI messages are out- put via the MIDI OUT B termi- nal and are unaffected by the MIDI Transmit settings (page 175).

•Bank #60 (factory preset) of the Multi Pads can be used to call up various settings of the Scale Tuning feature (page 158). This lets you change the tuning of the individual notes by simply pressing the appro- priate Multi Pad.
