• Step Back
Cancel the previously input note.
• Tie
Extend the length of the previously input note by the current
setting.
• Rest
Inputs a rest. First set the Note Type parameter to a length that is
the same as the rest you want to input, and then press [3 (Rest)].
• Zoom In
Narrow the range of keys shown in the display. Use this when
you want to view certain notes at greater magnification.
• Zoom Out
Expand the range of notes shown in the display. Use this when
you want to see which notes have been input.
8. Repeat the above steps to continue inputting.
The previous value of each parameter is remembered. This means
that if you want to use the same settings as the previously input
note, there is no need to change the settings. Once you have set the
Gate Time parameter and Input Velocity parameter, it is not
normally necessary to change them, so all you have to do is set the
Step Time parameter and specify the pitch (note) of each note.
The note will not be finalized as long as you hold down the key.
This means that you will be able to modify the various
parameters of the note (Step Time, Gate Ratio, Velocity).
9. When you are finished step recording, press [STOP].
The [REC] indicator will go dark.
If you are not happy with the results of the previous step
recording, you can press [MENU], and from the Menu window
that appears, select "Undo/Redo" to return to the state prior to
recording (Undo/Redo).
After executing Undo, you can use Redo to revert to the
previous state. After executing Undo, you can execute Redo by
performing the above procedure the above procedure once
again.
Inputting a Chord
Press the chord. The cursor will move to the next step when you
release all keys or pads simultaneously.
Moving the input location
• Pressing
will move the input location forward by the
current Note Type value.
• Pressing
will move the input location backward by the
current Note Type value.
• Hold down [SHIFT] and press
location by one measure.
• Hold down [SHIFT] and press
by one measure.
will advance the input
will return the input location
Moving the display region
Pressing
or
will move the displayed region of notes
upward or downward.
The Relation between Note Value Length
and Gate Time
The relation between the length of the note value and the gate
time is shown below. Since the Fantom-S's sequencer uses a
TPQN (Ticks Per Quarter Note; i.e., resolution) of 480, a quarter
note gate time is 480 clocks.
Note
The gate time that is recorded in step recording will be the
original gate time value multiplied by the value of the Gate
Ratio parameter. For example, if the Gate Ratio parameter is
set to "80%," inputting a quarter note will mean that the
gate time is 480 x 0.8=384.
