1 SOURCE (PLAY) ROOT/CHORD
IMPORTANT
The parameters here should be set before recording. If you change the settings after recording, the appropriate note conversion cannot
be done even when you specify various chord types.
Before recording, you should set these parameters which determine what key is used for playing when you
record the Source Pattern to the Bass, Chord, Pad or Phrase channel. If you set this to “Fm7,” your
recorded original phrase (Source Pattern) will be triggered by specifying Fm7 during normal performance.
CM7 (Source Chord Root = C and Source Chord Type = M7) is set by default. Depending on the settings
here, the playable notes (chord notes and recommended scale notes) will differ. For details, see below.
NOTE When the parameters for the selected channel are set to NTR: ROOT FIXED, NTT: BYPASS, and NTT BASS: OFF, the parameters here are changed to
“PLAY ROOT” instead of “SOURCE ROOT.” In this case, you can hear the resulting sound while you change the Chord Root/Type during playback.
NOTE The settings here are not applied when NTR is set to GUITAR.
2 NTR/NTT
The settings here determine how the original notes of the Source Pattern are converted in response to the
Chord change during normal performance.
NOTE Since the Rhythm channels should not be affected by chord changes, make sure that the parameters are set to NTR: ROOT FIXED, NTT: BYPASS, and NTT
BASS: OFF. In this case, “SOURCE ROOT” is changed to “PLAY ROOT.”
[3

NTT (Note Trans-

[7

] NTT BASS ON/
OFF The channel for which this is set to ON will be played back by the bass root
note, when the on-bass chord is recognized by the instrument. When NTR is
set to GUITAR and this parameter is set to ON, only the note which is
assigned to bass will be played back by the bass root note.
When the Source Root is C:
C = Chord notes
C, R = Recommended notes
