Song Tracks
A Song on the KT is much more than simply a group of sequences chained together. Once you
have created a song and edited its steps, you can record another complete set of eight song-length
tracks. These Song Tracks are completely independent from the individual sequence tracks; each
has its own sound and complete set of track parameters. Song Tracks are shown as 09-16,
whereas sequence tracks are shown as 01-08. The length of the song tracks is determined by the
combined length of the song’s component sequences.
Let’s suppose you have constructed a song. For our example, we will take three sequences, each
using up to eight tracks, and combine those sequences into a song:
•
Step 1 of the Song is Sequence 01 (a 4-bar sequence) for 1 Repetition;
• Step 2 is Sequence 02 (an 8-bar sequence) for 1 Repetition; and
• Step 3 is Sequence 03 (a 4-bar sequence) for 1 Repetition.
Your Song would look like this:
Sequence Track 1
Sequence Track 2
Sequence Track 3
Sequence Track 4
Sequence Track 5
Sequence Track 6
Sequence Track 7
Sequence Track 8

Sequence Track 2

Song Length
Now, with the song selected, you can press the
{SEQUENCER/PRESET_TRACK}
buttons and see
an entirely new set of empty tracks. These are the song tracks. If you are not sure which tracks
you’re viewing, check the track LEDs. They flash when sequence tracks are displayed in Song
mode, and remain solidly lit when song tracks are displayed. Continuing with the above
example, the song tracks might look like this:

Tracks
Song tracks are treated like normal sequence tracks whose length is equivalent to the combined
length of all the sequences which make up the song. The length of the song tracks is set
according to the song length at the time the first song track is recorded. Changes made to the
song structure after the first song track is recorded will not affect the length of the song tracks.
•
You can change the sound on a song track using
{REPLACE_TRACK_SOUND}
, just as you
would a sequence track.
• You can enter record (by holding down
{RECORD}
and pressing
{PLAY}
) and record on any
