Editing Duration Patterns - Kurzweil Forte Manual

Program Edit Mode
The Arpeggiator Function
Press the ARPSAV soft button to save your new pattern as an Arp Preset. Press Exit to return
to the ARP page. When exiting the Progam editor, it will automatically give you the option
to save the pattern with a User Program if changes have been made.
Note: For patterns with negative velocity values, if the velocity of the first played note
is low enough that a pattern step could result in a velocity of zero, some notes may
have a velocity of zero and therefore produce no sound.

Editing Duration Patterns

Press the Favorite1 button when a pattern is highlighted in the DurationPatt field to access
the editor. This page displays the pattern's total number of steps. Pressing STEP- removes the
last step in the list, pressing STEP+ inserts a new note step at the end of the list (the pattern
editor remembers the values of removed steps until you save or exit.) Use the navigation
buttons to move between pattern steps, use the Alpha Wheel, alphanumeric pad, or
Previous-/Next+ buttons to enter the note shift amount for each step.
Press DELETE to delete the pattern from memory. Pressing EXIT will offer the opportunity
to save the pattern you have edited. Pressing YES gives you the option to rename the pattern
and save. To create a new Duration pattern, edit an existing pattern and choose Rename
when saving. Press the Exit button to return to the ARP page. Your pattern will be available
in the Duration Patt parameter.
Press the ARPSAV soft button to save your new pattern as an Arp Preset. When you hit the
Exit button to leave the Program editor, you will be given the option to save a new User
Program with any changes you have made. See

Saving a User Program for details.
