Here, you can input Tones 0–11 for each step 01 to 48. Step
can be a maximum of 48 steps, and Tone corresponds to up
to twelve notes for the (up to) twelve keys pressed
simultaneously. If Sort ( Global 6–1a) is checked, the notes
that were pressed will correspond in ascending order of
pitch to Tones 0, 1, etc. If Sort (Global 6–1a) is unchecked,
the notes that were pressed will correspond to Tones 0, 1,
etc. in the order in which they were pressed.
These parameters are not valid for preset patterns P0–

Step No. (Step Number)
Selects the step that you wish to edit, and set/reset each
Tone. When the Step No. is selected, use the numeric keys
to input the Tones. Numeric keys 0–9 correspond to Tones 0–
9, "–" corresponds to Tone 10, and "." to Tone 11. Each time
you press a key, the Tone will be set or reset.
When Arpeggio Tone Mode (Global 6–1c) is Normal, the
display will indicate "●." When set to Fixed Note, the
display will indicate "❍."
If you wish to delete all Tones of a step, use the Delete Step
menu command. To insert a blank step, use the Insert Step
menu command.
Pitch Offset
For each step, the pitch corresponding to the Tone can be
raised or lowered in semitone steps. This lets you make
settings for the same tone in each step to create a melody, or
to make settings for two or more tones in each step to play
parallel chords.
Gate
Off: That step will not sound even if Tones have been
specified.
Legato: Notes will continue sounding until the same Tone is
sounded next, or until the pattern returns to the beginning.
At this time, the display will change to " " or "■."
