Step Backing Sequence procedure
Here is the general Step Backing Sequencer recording procedure.
Hint: Before entering Step Backing Sequence mode to edit an exist-
ing Song, select the "Save Song" command from the page menu,
and save the Song to disk. This way, you will have a copy of the
Song, in case you don't like the results of your editing.
1. While in Sequencer mode, press the REC button, and
choose the "Step Backing Sequence" recording option.
2. Select the Measure parameter, and go to the desired posi-
tion in the Song, by using the TEMPO/VALUE controls.
Alternatively, you can move the locator using the "soft"
transport buttons in the display. See ""Soft" transport but-
tons" on page 177.
3. Select the parameter type (Style, Performance, Tempo...)
to insert, edit or delete at the current position. If an arrow
( ) appears next to a parameter, the shown event has been
inserted at the current position.
4. Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to modify the selected
event. Delete it by pressing the Del button next to the event.
When editing a parameter without the arrow ( ) next to it,
a new event is inserted at the current position.
5. Exit the Step Backing Sequence recording mode, by press-
ing the Done button in the display.
6. Press (PLAY/STOP) in the SEQUENCER 1 section to
listen to the consequence of your editing. If they are fine,
save the Song to disk.
