Specifying the Time Signature
Numerator: Number of beats per measure
Denominator: Basic note value
* It is not possible to change after the pattern is recorded.
Specifying the Length (Number of Measures) of the Pattern
When "Replace" is selected for the RecMode (p. 62), it is not necessary to specify
the Length. Recording will continue until you press [PLAY/STOP], and the number
of measures recorded will automatically become the "Length" setting.
* It is not possible to change while the pattern is playing back.
Specifying the Tempo of the Pattern
When "Ext" is selected for the Seq Sync (p. 68), "MIDI" ( =MID) will appear.
Choosing a Playing Method
Loop: After the pattern is played back to the end, playback then repeats
and continues until [PLAY/STOP] is pressed.
OneShot: Playback stops once the end of the pattern is reached.
Tap: Each time the [PLAY/STOP] is pressed (or pad is struck; refer to p. 54),
the sounds contained in a pattern are played back one at a time in sequence.
TapVelo: Tap playback with changes of the volume depending on how strongly
the pad are struck.
* It is not possible to change while the pattern is playing back.
Specifying the Time to Return the Pattern to the Beginning
In Tap playback, this returns the pattern to the beginning if the set time
interval elapses without the pad being hit again. If it is set to "OFF," this
function will be disabled.
Ignoring a pause at the beginning of the pattern
If "ON" is selected, this starts playback of the pattern from the
first note even if a pause is left at the beginning of the pattern.
Adjusting the Pitch of Melody Parts
This transposes the key of the melody parts in semitone steps.
Ml1: Melody Part 1, Ml2: Melody Part 2

You can use the pads to record patterns if you have no MIDI keyboards.
