ABOUT
LAST STEP
AND
SCALE
The
default
setting
is
4/4
time,
shown
by
the
red
light at
the
left
side
of
the
chart.
In this,
the lowest
of the
four
chart
lines,
the
16 Main Keys
are
shown
divided
into
1
bar of
4
crotchets, therefore
the
value
represented
by
each
Main Key
is
a
semi-quaver,
or
1/1
6
note.

A
bar of
4/4 time
To
enter the Pattern
other than above, such
as 3/4,
a
bar
consists
of
12
steps, so
it
is
necessary to
change the
total
step
number from
16
to
12.

A
bar of
3/4 time
J
The
chart
line
second
from
the
bottom
is
divided
into half a
bar of
two
crotchets,
in
which
the
16
Main
Keys
represent
a
demisemiquaver,
or
1/32
note.
Although
patterns
may
be only
half-a-bar
long,
two
patterns
may
be chained
to play consecu-
tively.
(See
c.
Chaining patterns together
on
page
29.)
The
third
line
up on
the chart
is
similar to
the
first,
except
for three beats
(or 6)
in
the bar
instead of
common
time.
The
fourth
line
is
similar
to the
second
line,
but
again
caters for
3
or
6
beats
in
the
bar.
The
Scale
may
be
set
to
any
of
the
lines.
(See
b.
Setting
Scale.)
The
Pattern of
4/4 with
triplets
also consists
of
12
steps.
If,
however,
entering the Pattern
with
the
Scale
set
to 4/4, the
total
playing
time
will
be
three
quarter
of
the
common
time. So,
it
is
necessary
to
change
the
time
of each
step.
(See
b.
Setting
Scale.)
The
Last
Step
is
set
so that
js
and J
=16,
^'
(simple)
and
J"'
(compound)
=
12.
