CHAPTER 2: RECORD SETUP
Several parameters are often adjusted prior to recording a Pattern, such as metronome,
Pattern length, etc. General instructions are:
1.
Press the RECORD SETUP button.
2.
Use the PAGE (up and down) buttons to select different "pages" of functions.
These pages are described below.
3.
Adjust values on pages, if necessary, as described for each page.
4.
After making all needed changes, press RECORD SETUP again to exit, or choose
another page.
Page 1: Select The Quantization Value (Quantize Select)
The display shows QUANTIZE SELECT and
a note icon in the lower left Quantize
window.
The note icon displays the quantization value
in standard rhythmic notation. Enter the
desired quantization value with the INC/DEC
or number buttons:

Quantization shifts your playing to the specified beat while you play, so choose the
desired value before tapping out your rhythms. Remember that you can also change
quantization while recording if, for example, you want to record snare with eighth note
quantization but high-hats with 16th note quantization.
Note: The quantize value also sets the step length in Step Edit mode.
Background As you record a Pattern, quantization shifts all drum events to the nearest
selected rhythmic value to eliminate small timing errors. Example: With a quantize value
of 1/16, all drum events you play will be shifted to the nearest 16th note.
