SEQUENCER mode
Parameter-related features
• When the Status of a track is set to INT or Both, an
external sequencer can be used to play NAUTILUS as a
multi-timbral tone generator. When the Status of a track
is set to Both, EXT, or EX2, the sequencer of
NAUTILUS can play external tone generators.
• Tone Adjust parameters let you make temporary
adjustments to the sound of the program used by a track,
while leaving the original program unchanged. While
creating a song, you can use this capability to make
changes in realtime by (for example) softening the tone
of the bass sound or sharpening the attack of the strings
without having to return to PROGRAM mode and edit
the program itself.
• NAUTILUS's AMS (Alternate Modulation) capability
lets you use control changes for realtime control of the
parameters of the programs used in a program. Its MIDI
Sync abilities let you synchronize the LFO speed to
changes in the tempo.
• Dmod (Dynamic Modulation) functionality lets you
control effect parameters in realtime. You can also use
MIDI Sync to synchronize the LFO speed or delay time
to changes in the tempo.
Editing and operation features
• The Edit Program feature allows you to adjust Program
parameters while a Song is playing, and while still
hearing all of the other Tracks.
• Program and Combination settings can be copied to a
song.
• Sequencer data such as a song that you create can be
saved in NAUTILUS's native format, or transmitted as a
MIDI data dump.
• A song you created can be converted into SMF (Standard
MIDI File) data. SMF songs can also be loaded.
• The Play/Rec/Mute and Solo buttons let you instantly
play/mute any desired track on the fly.
• You can rewind or fast-forward MIDI Tracks while
listening to the sound.
Sampling features
• Multisamples you create can be played back together
with internal programs in SEQUENCER mode. The
Time Slice function of SAMPLING mode lets you divide
a rhythm loop sample and create performance data that
corresponds to the divided samples. In SEQUENCER
mode you can play this performance data, and adjust the
playback tempo without affecting the pitch of the rhythm
loop sample. You can also exchange the note numbers of
the data, or modify the timing to freely re-create new
rhythm loops.
• The NAUTILUS provides an In-Track Sampling
function which lets you sample an external audio source
while the song plays back, and will automatically create
note data to trigger that sample at the appropriate point
during the playback of the track.
440
Drive recorder section
• You can use up to 300,000 audio events (or 400,000
MIDI events), up to 200 songs, and up to 999 measures
per song.
• Sixteen audio tracks are provided. Each track provides
linear 16-bit PCM recording, with a maximum length of
80 minutes for one recorded take.
• Automation data (volume, pan, EQ, send 1/2) can be
recorded for each track.
• Sixteen tracks can be played back simultaneously, and
four tracks can be recorded simultaneously.
• The Stereo Pair function lets you control two adjacent
tracks by adjusting just the odd-numbered track. This lets
you simultaneously make mixer settings for a pair of
stereo-recorded tracks.
• A broad range of internal buses can be selected as the
recording source: Audio Inputs 1–2, USB, L/R, REC Bus
1–4, or Individual 1–4. Flexible routing even lets you
insert effects into external audio sources and record
them.
• When you realtime-record, an audio event and region
data are created. The region data is linked with the
WAVE data (audio data) recorded on the drive. You are
free to edit this data in a variety of ways, such as moving
the location of the audio event, or editing/replacing the
region data or WAVE file.
• You can use numerous editing commands (including
event editing) to edit the recorded audio events. Event
editing lets you edit the time stamp or region data of the
audio events.
• Region editing lets you edit the WAVE file selection,
and adjust the start/end addresses of the WAVE file in
units of a single sample.
• You can freely select a region of a WAVE file (mono,
48 kHz sample rate) and use it in your song. You can use
commercially available sample data etc. in your song by
sample-rate converting it from 44.1 kHz into 48 kHz.
WAVE files editing operations such as Volume Ramp
and Normalize are also provided.
• The Time Stretch function lets you stretch or shrink the
tempo of a phrase you recorded or a sample you
assigned, making it match the tempo of your song.
• The convenient Anchor function makes it easy to place a
phrase at the correct timing in your song.
• Auto and manual punch-in/out are provided.
• The Rehearsal function lets you practice punch-in/punch-
out recording without actually recording anything.
