Drum Kit Play Mode
3-A. Real-Time Recording
You can record your drum kit or connected MIDI
keyboard’s performances in real-time.
First, select the target track in the Recording
Standby as mentioned earlier (page 19) and set
the number of measures and quantization level.
1. Setting the number of measures for
recording
Set the number of measures you wish to record.
However, if data is held on the other track, the
length of the current song has alerady been
determined in recording of that track. For this
recording, set the number of measures within the
length of the song.
❏
Range of settings:
1-999
2. Setting quantization
Set the level of quantization for recording.
Quantization refers to the correction of
differences in the timing of MIDI notes in your
performance to match a specified note
resolution. For example, if you set the
quantization level to eighth notes, the notes in
your performance will be aligned exactly with
eighth notes, even if there are slight variations in
your timing. The note length specified here is the
quantization level (i.e., the resolution to which
your timing will be corrected). Generally, you
would choose a quantization level that is the
shortest note length in the phrase or rhythm that
you are playing. With the quantization level set to
“off,” your performance will not be corrected
while recording and recorded in 1/96 quarter-
note resolutions. You can correct the timing of
your performance by applying quantization to it
after recording.
❏
Setting:
off, quarter note, quarter note triplet, eighth
note, eighth note triplet, 16th note, 16th note
triplet
n
When recording on top of existing data
(overdubbing), if you choose a quantization note
length that is larger than that used in the existing
data, the existing data will be re-quantized.
3. Real-Time Recording
Starting Recording
1.
Press the Start/Stop button and recording will
begin after a two-measure count-in.
Your performance is recorded as MIDI data
whenever you hit pads or play a connected
MIDI keyboard.
n
You will see the message “Sequence data is not
empty” if you press the Record button in Replace
mode and there is data already held on the
selected track. Press the ENTER/YES button to
return to Recording Standby mode. Retry
recording with an empty track.
n
During the count-in and recording, the LED
above the CLICK button will blink.
n
If the SyncMode parameter has been set to
“external” in Utility mode, recording will begin
when a System Real-Time Start message is
received at the MIDI IN or TO HOST port.
n
If the recording mode is set to OverDub and you
hit a pad while holding down the BASS/DELETE
button, all instances of the associated MIDI note
number will be deleted.
