Multi Pad Step Recording (EDIT)
Step Recording can be executed in the EDIT page. After selecting a Multi Pad in step 4 on page 157, press
the TAB [F] button to select the EDIT Page.
The EDIT page indicates the Event list, which lets you record notes with absolutely precise timing. This Step
Recording procedure is essentially the same as that for Song Recording (pages 141–144), 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] but-
ton.
