3STEP
(Step Time)...[Knob 2], [SHIFT]+[F2] → Numeric Keypad
[Settings]
Settings made via the knob
0001 ~ 0059, 32nd note , 16th note triplet ,
16th note , 8th note triplet , 8th note ,
1/4 note triplet , 1/4 note , half note ,
whole note
Settings made via the numeric keypad
0001 ~ 9999 clocks
Specifies the length of the note or rest to be entered.
When the PB or CC event type is selected this parameter
specifies the step time:
the size of the step the pointer will move to the next position
after an event is entered.
4VELOCITY.....[Knob 3], [SHIFT]+[F3] → Numeric Keypad
[Settings] 001 ~ 127, RND1 ~ RND4 (random)
Specifies the velocity value with which the note will be
entered.
The set value (1 ~ 127) corresponds to the MIDI velocity
value entered.
When one of the random settings is selected (RND1 ~
RND4) a random velocity value will be entered.
RND1 ~ RND4 can be set by using [SHIFT] + [F3] →
Numeric keypad to enter 128 ~ 131.
5GATE TIME...[Knob 4], [SHIFT]+[F4] → Numeric Keypad
[Settings] 001% ~ 200%
Sets the gate time to produce slurs, staccato notes, etc.
“Gate time” refers to the actual length of time the note
sounds. For the same 1/4 note, for example, a long gate time
will produce a slur while a short gate time will produce a
staccato effect.
Gate time is indicated as a percent value of the step time.
A setting of 50% produces a staccato sound, values between
about 80% and 90% produce normal note length, and a value
of 99% will produce a slur.
6REST................................................................................[F1]
Press [F1] to enter a rest as long as the specified step time. The
point will move ahead to the next data-entry position. Rests do
not appear on the display.
7TIE.................................................................................... [F2]
When [F2] is pressed to enter a tie the preceding note is length-
ened to the full step time. For example, in the following phrase
note 1 is entered with 1/4 note step time. If the step time is then
changed to an 8th note and [F2] is pressed, note 2 is entered.
Dotted notes can also be entered using the TIE function. To pro-
duce a dotted 1/4 note, for example, enter the step time to an 8th
note, then press [F2] twice.
8DELETE..........................................................................[F3]
Deletes all notes at the current pointer position.
Use [Knob1] (POINTER) while holding [F3] to delete all notes at
the pointer positions.
9BACK DELETE........................................................... [F4]
Moves the pointer backward by one step and deletes all notes
at that location.
0VALUE.............[Knob3], [SHIFT]+[F3] → Numeric Keypad
[Settings]
When the EVENT TYPE is PITCH BEND
-8192 ~ +8191, KEYBOARD
When the EVENT TYPE is CC
000 ~ 127, KEYBOARD
Sets the value of the data to be entered.
When KEYBOARD is selected the value can directly entered
via the RS7000 keyboard.
[Procedure]
When the EVENT TYPE is PITCH BEND
The pitch bend values from -8192 through +8191 are
assigned to the keyboard.
Pressing the leftmost white key (E) while holding the
[OCT UP] button enters ±0000, and each key to the right
of this increases the value by 341 (semitone steps) until
+8191 is reached at the high E key (the second from right-
most white key).
NOTE
There is no actual data representing rests.
When a “rest” is entered the pointer simply
moves ahead to the next data-entry position,
effectively leaving a rest.
NOTE
Mistakenly entered notes can be erased by
pressing [F4] immediately after they are entered
(before changing the step time value).
