Recording An Arpeggio Performance - Roland MC-909 Quick Start Manual

Creating an original song (pattern)

■ Recording an arpeggio performance

Let's use the arpeggiator and chord memory to realtime-record arpeggios on part 3.
Realtime recording is the method in which your performance is recorded exactly as
you play it.
Selecting a sound to use for part 3
In this example let's select "PR-A: 003 JP OctAttack."
The selection procedure is the same as in "Selecting a rhythm set (drums) for part 10"
(p. 4).
Selecting how the arpeggio will be sounded
To specify how the arpeggio will be sounded, we will select the arpeggio style and
the chord form that will determine the structure of the chord.
In this example, we will select the arpeggio style "Preset071" and the chord form
"P038: G Maj add9."
