8. GATE TIME button
By holding down this button and using the ribbon keyboard while
a sequence plays back, you can change the gate time (duration) of the
synth part's notes; the change in gate time corresponds to the posi-
tion where you touch the ribbon keyboard.
The gate time will be the minimum value (1.4%) at the far left of the
ribbon keyboard, and the maximum value (100%) at the far right. By
performing this operation in REC mode, the gate time for each step
can be recorded in the sequence to occur during playback.
