NOTE: If "52 Jazz Kit" appears in parentheses, it means that the current channel is not a drum channel.
You can either go to the Master page to change the drum channel, or assign the drums to a current drum
channel in Song mode.
3.
Now use the up arrow button to highlight the RecTrk field.
Change RecTrk to "2". You can use either the alpha wheel or the keypad.

Return to the Program field, and set it to "80 Mix Bass".

Notice that the "R" on the Track line, which stands for "Record", has moved to track 2. Also
notice how each of the sixteen tracks has a default channel associated with it. You could
change this if you wanted to, but most people find it easiest to associate track 1 with
channel 1, track 2 with channel 2, etc.
5.
Repeat the above two steps to assign "97 Gospel Organ" to channel 3 and "46 Brt Saxy
Lead" to channel 4.
You've now chosen the programs for your first sequence. It's important to realize, though,
that you have not recorded them yet. They will be there when you need them, but they
have not yet been included in a song. Also, don't forget that you can change the program
assignments any time before or after you record the song.
Record a Drum Loop
Our song will be based around a four measure drum loop that we'll record now. Then, a little
later on, we'll "unloop" the drum track and really start jamming.
The length of the drum loop is determined by the current endpoint, so we'll start by recording 4
measures of silence to set the endpoint.
