You can select another section while you are recording. This allows you, for
example, to record the intro of a pattern and then work on the verse/chorus section.
You can also change both the Drum Kit and the current Pad Bank as you record
your pattern.
After you select a pattern, you should find and select a suitable Drum
Kit. The Drum Kit should contain the drum and percussion voices
you want to use to create your pattern.
Selecting a Drum Kit
Place the unit in Drum Kit Mode by pressing the
[DRUM KIT]
button. The
“
DRUM KIT
” indicator flashes. Select another drum kit by rotating the Jog
Dial or by using the
[ +1 ]
and
[ –1 ]
buttons.
If a suitable kit cannot be found, you should create one with one of the
user drum kits. See page 83 for instructions.
Selecting a Pad Bank
Place the unit in Pad Bank Mode by pressing the
[PAD BANK]
button.
Select another pad bank by rotating the Jog Dial or by using the
[ +1 ]
and
[ –1 ]
buttons.
These two steps are entirely optional.
