Record the bass using step recording

The Step Recording function allows you to input notes and rests one by one. It is suitable for
recording a bass line that should be rhythmically correct, or other Parts you may have difficul-
ties playing by hand. Use "PR-B:013 Finger Bass" assigned to Part 2 of a Performance.

(combine) sequencer data into a single Phrase track, you need to conduct separate step record-
ing sessions and merge the takes using the Track Edit function (Owner's Manual p. 130).
