“Pat” — Step Record Pattern Changes

Here’s how the STEP record pattern display will look if you’ve selected an empty song (the appropriate pattern data will appear if the selected song contains data).

Moving Around & Entering Data

As usual, the cursor keys are used to move the cursor to the location at which you want to enter data, and the [-1/NO]and [+1/YES] keys, data dial, or numeric keypad are used to actually enter or change data.

The cursor keys also move you forward or backward through the song: moving the cursor past the bottom of the screen accesses subsequent measures, while moving it above the top of the screen accesses the preceding measures (if there are any). In th pattern display moving sideways takes you to the time signature, pattern number, and section parameters.

In all of the STEP record displays the key takes you directly to the first measure.
