10–3: RPPR Setup
10–3a
10–3b
Here you can make settings for the RPPR (Realtime Pattern
Play/Recording) function. RPPR lets you assign patterns to
individual keys, and then playback patterns simply by
pressing individual notes on the keyboard. This
performance can be recorded in real-time.
For each song, you can assign either a preset pattern or a
user pattern to each of the 72 keys in the range C#2–C8. For
each key, you can specify the pattern, track number, and
how the pattern will be played.
Keys used to play patterns via RPPR cannot be used for
the KARMA function. If RPPR is on, keys to which a
pattern is not assigned will play the program of the
track that's selected in Track Select. In this case, the
KARMA function will operate if KARMA Module A, B,
C, or D is assigned to the track and turned on. Also,
notes generated by the KARMA function will not
trigger the RPPR function.
When Local Control is OFF (Local Control On Global
1–1a), the keyboard will not trigger RPPR pattern
playback. Notes received at MIDI IN on the channel of
the track currently selected by Track Select will trigger
patterns. If you have recorded only the trigger notes on
an external sequencer and wish to use the playback
from the external sequencer to trigger RPPR patterns on
M3, set Local Control OFF.
If you want the note data generated by RPPR to be
recorded by the external sequencer, set Local Control
ON, and turn off the echo back function of the external
sequencer. See "Local Control On settings" on page 614.
In the RPPR Setup page, RPPR is turned on
automatically. This will be the same result as when the
RPPR check box (Seq 0–1–1(2)a) in each page is
checked.

When you play a key that is not assigned to RPPR, it will
sound using the settings of the track that's selected in Track
Select. Use this to select the track that you want to play
together with RPPR, or to audition a pattern before you
assign it. The program bank, number, and name of the
selected track is shown at the right.
Each RPPR pattern will begin playing when you press the
assigned key, regardless of the Track Select setting. It will
