Remember that simple Variations lead to the best results. A simple Variation can be enhanced and enriched by adding new
tracks. For example, you can record Major Variation 1 on three tracks only (Drums, Bass, Acc1) and with simple patterns.
Record Variation 2 setting Major and Minor in the same tracks (Drums, Bass, Acc1), but adding small differences. Variation 4
can be recorded on 4 tracks (Drums, Bass, Acc1, Acc2) and further changes to its patterns. Variation 4 could feature Major,
Minor and 7th chords on all of the fi ve tracks (Drums, Bass, Acc1, Acc2, Acc3) and more complex Riffs.
Once you have fi nish to record, press ESCAPE to exit the Sequencer mode.
NOTE: Each Variation may only contain a Fill pattern.
Following the same procedure some other tracks can be added to the style. Once you have fi nish to record the tracks of the
fi rst Variation, you can either:
•Select a new RIFF (BasicMin, Basic7th, IntroMaj, IntroMin. Intro7th, Fill, etc)
Use the +/- buttons in the numeric keypad to select the RIFF
•Select a new Variation
In this case press one of the VAR. button (led ON)
