Making Your Patterns SwingThe SWING function can be used to give patterns a looser “swing” feel by slightly delaying odd-numbered 8th or 16th
notes. Each pattern can be programmed with a different SWING setting. Swing settings can be made while playback is stopped
or during playback, so you can immediately hear the effect.
1Engage the SWING Function
Press the [REPEAT/SWING] key (the number
“9” key) while holding the [SHIFT] key.
DETAIL
The SWING function is only
available in the PATTERN mode. In the
SONG mode, pressing [REPEAT/SWING]
while holding [SHIFT] engages the
REPEAT function (page 24).
2Set the Swing Value
Use the [–1] and [+1] keys to set the swing value
as required. The higher the value the greater the
effect. The “E4” and “S2” settings produce a triplet
effect. (Off, E1 — E9, S1 — S5)
3Exit
Press the [EXIT] key when done.
DETAIL
Swing settings made in the PATTERN mode are retained in memory and remain in effect when the
pattern is used in the SONG mode.
