STEP RECORD PROCEDURE
The Step Record allows you to create a new Song by
entering the single notes or chords in each track. This is
very useful when transcribing an existing score, or
needing a higher grade of detail, and is particularly
suitable to create drum and percussion tracks.
1. While in the Main screen of the Song mode, press
RECORD to enter the Song Record mode. The
Main page of the Song Record mode will appear.
2. Use the A VOLUME/VALUE buttons to select the
"Rec" (Recording Mode) parameter. Use these but-
tons, or the TEMPO/VALUE controls, to select the
"Step Dub" (Step Overdub) or the "StepOwr"
(Step Overwrite) recording mode.
• The Step Overdub mode lets you add events to
the existing events.
• The Step Overwrite mode will overwrite all
existing events.
3. Press SEQ1 PLAY/STOP to turn its LED on, and
enter the Step Record page. (See "Step Record
page" on page 94 for more information on each
parameter of this page).
