•If you use a MIDI keyboard connected to the MIDI IN connector for real-time input, you can add intensity information for each note. (For information on which drum sound corresponds to which note number, see p. 161.)

•When the MRS-802 is in the default condition, the MIDI receive channel for the drum kit is set to 10. For real-time input using a MIDI keyboard, set the MIDI send channel of the keyboard also to 10.

•The MIDI receive channel for the drum kit can be changed if desired (→ p. 130).

•After changing the quantize value (→ p. 90), you can restart real-time input. In this case, the timing of notes that have already been input does not change. For example, you could record hi-hat play with 32nd notes and then switch to 16th notes for snare and kick drum input.
