Entering Gates; Glide Settings; Synth Parameter Values; Transposing A Sequence - Roland SE-02 User Manual

ENTERING GATES

1. Press the GATE button to make it light.
2. While holding down the step button at which you want to enter a gate, use the [VALUE] knob to select
the gate(10–100).
3. Now you can select a "tie" as a gate input value. By using a tie, you can make a smooth connection to
the next step without applying glide ([GLIDE]). (available from V1.10+)
The display shows the note number.
• If you want to enter the same gate at all steps, press the step buttons where you want to enter the gate; then
hold down the [GATE] button and turn the [VALUE] knob.

GLIDE SETTINGS

1. Press the [GLIDE] button to make it light.
2. Press the step buttons for which you want to apply a glide effect, making them light. The pitch changes smoothly
from each lit step to the next step.

SYNTH PARAMETER VALUES

The values of synth parameters that you change using the knobs and switches can be stored in each step.
1. Press the [PRM] button to make it light.
2. While holding down the step at which you cant to enter a parameter value, operate the knob or switch. The display
indicates the synth parameter value.
• If you press a step button while holding down the [PRM] button, the parameter values of the button you
pressed are erased.
• If you want to erase all of the parameter values, hold down the [PRM] button and turn the [VALUE]
knob. The display indicates OFF and all values are erased.
• A lit step button indicates [PRM] on, and an unlit step button indicates [PRM] off.

TRANSPOSING A SEQUENCE

1. Program a sequence you like
2. Set the SYNC settings for the sequencer as you want them
EX: Clocking the SE-02 sequencer from the GATE output of an external sequencer, or other clock source.
3. Set the key trigger (option 3 of the sequencer setup menu) to "TRIGGER"
4. Now when you play a key the sequence will begin and clock from whichever source you've assigned,
and in which ever key you are playing.

PERFORMANCE SETTINGS

1. Press the [PERFORM] button to make it light.
2. Press a step button to select a performance setting.
3. If you pressed step button [8] or [14] - [16] use the VALUE knob to specify the value.
