with BARLEN is exceeded
The Next parameter specifies which operation occurs when the pattern assigned to the
pad was played. If set to "1" - "13", the specified pattern is played. If set to "1 Fill" - "13
Fill", the specified pattern is also played, but pattern switching occurs at the bar
boundary. If set to "STOP", playback stops at that point (suitable for ending patterns).
Use the [VALUE] dial to change the setting value.

This starts the real-time input mode, and the pattern is played back. Also when you release the
pad, the pattern will continue to play until the preset number of measures is reached, or until
another pad is hit. The display shows the current measure and beat.

To switch the pattern, hit the pad for the pattern within the immediately preceding

pattern A
The pattern assigned to the pad is reserved, and will start playing from the beginning of the
next measure.
When you hit a pad for which the Next parameter ( ➝ p. 58) is set to "1 Fill" - "13 Fill", the
unit switches to the new pattern at the bar boundary. Because the new pattern also starts
at the bar boundary, there is no bar change for this measure.
Record other patterns in the same way.

To terminate real-time input, press the [I] key.

Real-time input stops at the beginning of the next measure.
• When wanting to automatically end real-time input after a certain pattern (for example
an ending pattern), has played, set the NEXT parameter of the pad to "STOP"
( ¡ p. 58).
• A song created with real-time input can be edited in the same way as a song created
with step input. For details, see page 61.
