Chapter 5 Creating Your Own Patterns and
TR-REC for Parts 1–7
In Parts 1-7, as with the Rhythm Part, only the rhythm, at a
single pitch, is recorded. Following this, you can alter the
pitches of any notes you want to change.
Inputting Only the Timing at a Single Pitch
Procedure
Before recording, first make all the necessary settings.
1. Referring to Steps 1-9 in "TR-REC for Rhythm Parts" (P.
68), make the recording settings.
Begin recording.
2. Press the [PLAY] button.
The "TR-REC" screen appears.
The MC-307 is now enabled for recording.
Simultaneously, looped playback of the performance
being input can be heard.
3. Press [SCALE] to select the scale.
The scale is switched each time the button is pressed.
Press the button until the indicator for the scale you want
to use is lit. The recording input range is determined
according to the scale selected.
Next, set the pitch, duration, and volume for the sounds
being input.
4. Press the [TR-REC] button, turning off the button light.
The function of the keyboard pads is switched, so they
now can be used to specify keyboard scales (instead of
input timing).
5. Press the keyboard pads to select the pitches for the
sounds being input.
* By pressing the [OCT (-/+)] button, you can input
pitches other than those in the octave for the keyboard
pads currently being played.

7. Using Assignable knob [3], determine the type of note for
the note message to be entered.
8. Using Assignable knob [4], determine the gate time
(length of sound) for the note message to be entered.
9. Using Assignable knob [2], determine the velocity
(loudness) for the note message to be entered.
10. Press the button corresponding to the timing at which
you want to enter the note message to illuminate its
indicator and then enter the data. To erase the data, press
the button to turn off its indicator.
* Use the [
] or [
] buttons to shift the position of the
measure (or the position in the measure) to be recorded.
When a rhythm divided into sixteenth notes or eighth
note triplet has been selected with the [SCALE] button,
one press of the [
] or [
position of the measure to shift one measure.
When a rhythm divided into 32nd notes or sixteenth
note triplet has been selected with the [SCALE] button,
one press of the [
] or [
position of the measure to shift half a measure.
11. When recording has finished, press the [STOP] button.
This completes input of the note rhythm. Next up is editing
of the pitch.
