Reference
The Multi Pads

■ Multi Pad Realtime Recording

The explanations here apply when you call up the RECORD page in step #4 of the Basic Procedure on
page 169.
1 Select a particular Multi Pad for recording. If you
want to create the Multi Pad data from scratch,
press the [NEW BANK] LCD button to call up an
empty bank.
3
Turn Repeat of
each pad On or
Off.
Enter a name for each Multi
5
Pad, as desired.
● Repeat On/Off
If the Repeat parameter is on for the selected pad, playback of the corresponding pad
will continue until the MULTI PAD [STOP] button is pressed. When you press the
Multi Pads of which the Repeat is turned on during song or style playback, playback
will start and repeat in sync with the beat.
If the Repeat parameter is off for the selected pad, playback will end automatically as
soon as the end of the phrase is reached.
● Chord Match On/Off
If the Chord Match parameter is on for the selected pad, the corresponding pad is
played back according to the chord specified in the chord section of the keyboard
generated by turning [ACMP] on, or specified in the LEFT voice section of the key-
board generated by turning [LEFT] on (when turning the [ACMP] off).
■ Multi Pad Step Recording using the Event List
The explanations here apply to when you call up the EDIT page in step #4 of the Basic
Procedure on page 169. The EDIT page indicates the Event list that lets you record notes
with absolutely precise timing. This Step Recording procedure is essentially the same as
that for Song Recording (pages 127–132), with the exception of the points listed below:
• There is no LCD button for switching channels, since Multi Pads contain data for
only a single channel.
• In the Multi Pad Creator, only the channel events and System Exclusive messages
can be entered. Chord and Lyrics events are not available. You can switch between
the two types of Event Lists by pressing the [F] button.

NOTE
• Multi Pads indicated with the fol-
lowing icon (hand on fretboard)
are created with special note
transpositions to produce the nat-
ural chord voicing of the guitar.
Because of this, if the Chord
Match setting is set to off, the Multi
Pads may not sound appropri-
ately.
