Using a Motion Sequence

What is a Motion Sequence?
The EM-1 has three types of motion sequence that let you record and loop tonal changes created by the
knobs and keys. (See p.35 "Recording a motion sequence")
The knobs and keys that are valid for each of the three types of motion sequence (effect, delay, part) will
differ depending on the type of part.
Effect
Delay
Drum part
Synth part A total of three: either EG Time, Glide, Level, or Pan; plus either Cutoff, Resonance, EG
Accent part Level
As an example, here's how to record the Pitch parameter in a motion sequence.
1.In Pattern mode, select the pattern that you wish to edit.
2.Press the Drum Part key to select the part that you wish to edit.
3.Press the Motion Sequence key to select either Smooth
4.Press the Rec key to enter record-ready mode (the Rec
key will light, and the Play/Pause key will blink).
5.Press the Play/Pause key to start the pattern (the Rec
key and Play/Pause key will light).
6.Move the Pitch knob to create various changes while
the pattern makes one cycle (16 steps x length, or 12
steps x length).
7.When the pattern has completed one cycle after you
began moving the knob, the Rec key will automati-
cally go dark and you will return to Play mode so that
you can listen to the motion sequence that you just
recorded.
After pressing the Stop/Cancel key to stop playback, perform step numbers 2 and fol-
lowing for "Saving a pattern that you create" to save the pattern that contains the mo-
tion sequence you just recorded.
There are two types of motion sequence (Smooth
switch between these to hear the difference. (Refer to p.34 "Playing a motion sequence.")
After recording a motion sequence, you can edit it using the Pattern mode STEP
EDIT functions Motion Dest. and Motion Value. (See p.39 "Editing motion sequence
data")
The number of valid knobs and keys for motion sequences are limited, depending on
the part. If you record more than the valid number of motion sequences for the same
part, the effect for the previous knob or key will be erased.
