Playing a Pattern by Hitting a Pad
(Pad Pattern) [F1 (PATTERN)]
The Pad Pattern function starts playback of a pattern when a
pad is struck. This function provides a very convenient way to
use patterns during a live performance.
If different patterns have been assigned to two or more pads,
striking another pad while a pattern is playing back will cause
pattern playback to switch to the newly selected pattern.

The performance of a pattern played back by the Pad
Pattern function cannot be recorded into the sequencer.

Parameter Value
Pedal Bend Range -24–0–+24
Description
Specifies whether the Pad Pattern
function will be used (ON) or not
used (OFF).
Selects the played back pattern
when the pad is struck.
If all pads are set to "OFF,"
appears.
The pattern plays back at the velocity
set for the pattern, regardless of the
strength with which the pad is struck.
The pattern plays back with the
velocity changing in response to the
strength with which the pad is struck.
This setting is valid only if "TAP" (p.
78) has been selected as the "Play
Type" for a multiple number of pads.
If one sound (pattern) is set to play
before the previous sound (pattern)
has finished playing, this setting
allows you to either have the
previous sound stop and the
subsequent sound start playing or
have the two sounds layered.
• Patterns set to the same
number
The previous sound stops while in
progress, and the subsequent
sound (pattern) starts playing.
• Patterns set to the different
numbers
The previous sound continues to
play to the end, while the
subsequent sound (pattern) is
superimposed on it.
Description
Specifies the amount of
pitch change produced by
the hi-hat pedal.
You can set this for each
pad (head and rim
separately) in semitone
units.
