5. Step Sequencer
These are the parameters for the step sequencers.
The RADIAS provides two step sequencers. You may
assign more than one timbre to each step sequencer, but
all of the timbres assigned to a step sequencer will oper-
ate in the same way.
Front Panel Parameter
These are the parameters you can set from the front pan-
el ARPEGGIATOR/STEP SEQUENCER section.
To edit parameters marked by “*” you must first use the
[SELECT] button to select STEP SEQ 1 or STEP SEQ 2.
ON (Step Sequencer/Arpeggiator On)
ON
[Off, On]
Switches both step sequencers on/off. The button will
light if this is on.
This parameter can be set only from the front panel [ON]
button.
If this is on, the arpeggiator will also be turned on.
LATCH*
[Off, On]
Specifies latch operation for the step sequencer.
On (button lit)
The sequence will continue playing after you take your
hand off the keyboard.
Off (button dark)
The sequence will stop playing when you take your
hand off the keyboard.
This parameter can be set only from the front panel
[LATCH] button.
(TYPE/)STEP REC*
If step sequencer 1 or 2 is assigned to a timbre, this will
operate as the record start button.
SELECT (Arpeggiator/Step Sequencer Select)
SELECT
[Off, ARPEGGIATOR, STEP SEQ1, STEP
SEQ2]
Assigns the arpeggiator or step sequencer to each tim-
bre.
For details, refer to p.96 “SELECT.”
The step sequencer can be triggered either by the
global MIDI channel or by the MIDI channel of the
timbre to which the step sequencer is assigned.
GATE*
TEMPO
Specifies the playback tempo of the step sequencer.
Higher settings will make the tempo faster. You can set
this using the P14–1: ARPEGGIATOR – COMN tab page
“Tempo” parameter.
The “Tempo” setting has no effect if the Global
mode P03: MIDI page “Clock” parameter

The “Tempo” setting is also the playback speed of
the arpeggiator and modulation sequencer.

Specifies the playback tempo of the step sequencer. You
can set the tempo by lightly pressing this several times
at the beat of your song. While recording a step se-
quence, this button will enter a rest or tie. To enter a rest,
press this button instead of a note. To enter a tie, hold
down the note while you press this button.

[01…64]
Specifies the number of steps for step sequencer 1.
The specified number of steps will be the length of se-
quencer 1.
If “S.SeqLink” is Off, you can set this in a range of 1–32
steps.
If “S.SeqLink” is On, you can set this in a range of 1–64
steps.
This setting is automatically reset to the number of
steps you recorded.
