Record Your Own Chord Progression & Pattern Changes

tons or the SHIFT-Number entry method (page 34) to select
the desired styles. For our example, however, you’ll only be
selecting sections with the HipHop2 style, so there’s no
need to change style numbers. The easiest way to enter
section changes is to simply press the appropriate micro-
keyboard keys at the appropriate times during recording.
Remember that all pattern changes occur at the top of the
next measure after they have been entered. Also keep in
mind the fact that some sections automatically switch to
another section once they have played through: INTRO to
MAIN A; FILL AB to MAIN B; FILL BA to MAIN B. You
should finish your accompaniment track with the ENDING
pattern, otherwise your accompaniment will play back
indefinitely.
The pattern changes you’ll want to record are as follows:
INTRO (measures 1 … 4): This is the starting pattern (you
should have already selected the INTRO pattern in step 5,
above).
MAIN A (measures 5 … 11): The MAIN A pattern will
automatically be selected after the INTRO finishes, so you
don’t have to manually select the MAIN A pattern.
FILL AB (measure 12): Press the [FILL AB] key on the
micro-keyboard during measure 11, that way the FILL AB
pattern will start playing from the top of measure 12.
MAIN B (measures 13 … 19): The MAIN B pattern will
automatically be selected after the FILL AB pattern plays
through once, so you don’t need to select it manually.
FILL BA (measure 20): Press the [FILL BA] key on the
micro-keyboard during measure 19, that way the FILL BA
pattern will start playing from the top of measure 20.
MAIN A (measures 21 … 28): The MAIN A pattern will
automatically be selected after the FILL BA pattern plays
through once, so you don’t need to select it manually.
