Multi Pad—Step Recordin g via MIDI
Step Recording can be carried out in the EDIT page. After selecting a Multi Pad in step 4 on page 76 , press
the TAB [
F
] button to select the EDIT page.
The EDIT page indicates the Event list, which lets you record notes with absolutely precise timing. This Step
Recording procedure is essentially the same as that for Song Recording (
pages 59–62 ), with the exception of
the points listed below:
• There is no LCD button for selecting channels, since Multi Pads contain data for only a single channel.
• In the Multi Pad Creator, only channel events and System Exclusive messages can be entered. Chord and
Lyrics events are not available. You can switch between the two types of Event Lists by pressing the [F] but-
ton.
You can manage (rename, copy, paste and delete) your created Multi Pad Bank and each of the Multi Pads
belonging to the Bank. For instructions on managing the Multi Pad Bank file, refer to “Basic Operations” in
the Owner’s Manual. This section covers how to manage each Multi Pad.
