Inserting an Event

To insert an event, specify the point of insertion in the Now: field and press INSERT[F4].
Select the type of event you want to insert from the following:
NOTE, PITCH BEND, CONTROL CHANGE, PROGRAM CHANGE, CH PRESSURE,
POLY PRESSURE, EXCLUSIVE and MIXER.
When EXCLUSIVE is selected, a field displaying the byte volume of the exclusive message to be
entered appears. Set the volume (byte) of the exclusive message you want to enter.
By pressing DO IT [F5], you can return to the step edit screen. Since the event set in the Insert
Event window will be inserted, set the parameter with the CURSOR keys and DATA wheel.
It is also possible to insert a note directly from a drum pad or keyboard. For details, refer to the
following "Step Recording."

Step Recording

On the step edit page displayed by pressing STEP [F1] on the main screen, it is possible to use
the drum pad or a MIDI keyboard to step record.

or MIDI keyboard connected to MIDI IN. In doing so, the velocity (the strength of the note on) or
the duration (length of the note) is affected by the entered data.
When Auto Step Increment: in the Step Edit Options window (see page 64) is set to
YES, during step recording, the Now: field points increase by the amount set in the Timing:
