DESCRIPTION

You must enter this mode before you can begin recording. While the sequencer is in this mode, the song remains locked at its current location. You can use this mode to set up for the start of recording (although in many cases you will complete setup work in PLAY STANDBY mode), and to wait for the appropriate time to move into REC mode.

HOW YOU EXIT THIS MODE

REC

DESCRIPTION

When you press to enter this mode from REC STANDBY mode, the sequencer counts out some lead-in beats (if specified; see page 299) and then begins recording from the current location. The song location advances at the speed set by the BPM setting. The sequencer plays out the song. You use the pads, knobs, ribbon, and scene-buttons control the sound; the sequencer records all of these actions as you execute them.

HOW YOU GET TO THIS MODE

Press while the sequencer is in REC STANDBY mode.

HOW YOU EXIT THIS MODE
