What is the TR-REC?
TR-REC is a way of recording in which the keyboard pads
are used as timing scale buttons for inputting note messages.
By pressing the keyboard pads, turning the pad lights on or
off, you can input and delete notes. This lets you place
sounds with whatever timing you want very simply.
