Sounds recorded during one cycle of a segment are
not permanent until the next cycle starts This is good to
know if you make a mistake right at

recording a drum part; simply press
RUN/STOP

the segment, and start over However if you’re adding a
few notes at the beginning of a song segment be sure
to wait for the end of the segment to come around
before hitting

stored

2G Erasing A Specific Drum Sound
When you are in
segment
mode and editing a
segment, you may erase a drum or percussion
sound wherever it appears in the segment.
1. To erase a particular drum sound wherever it
appears in the segment, first assign the drum
sound to be erased to a Drum Play button
(unless it is already assigned).
2. While the Drumulator is
stopped,
hold down
ERASE
(the
right-hand display shows a blinking
cursor). While holding down
ERASE,
tap the
Drum Play button corresponding to the sound
you want to erase. The cursor will be replaced
by two letters confirming the drum sound about
to be erased:
If you change your mind about erasing, or
picked the wrong drum sound by mistake,
release
ERASE
and start over.
3. While continuing to hold down
ERASE
, press
ENTER.
A short beep will confirm that the drum
has been erased.
Notes:

When you erase a sound in this mode, you erase
both the accented and non-accented version of the
sound, regardless of which version is assigned to
the Drum Play button.
