Erasing Mistakes in Step
Record
If the same instrument has been entered twice at the same location, a “1”
or “2” will appear on the display instead of the usual dot, indicating the 1st or
2nd occurrences of that instrument, respectively. Any of the numeric keys used
to select the various parameters mentioned above can be used to alternately
select “1” and “2”, and the corresponding parameter values.
It is also possible to directly modify the pitch, decay, pan, filter and balance
parameters for each note in the same way as in the real time record mode: set
the wheel parameter selector to the desired parameter, move the wheel by an
appropriate amount in the desired direction, then enter the note by playing the
instrument pads (see “Modifying Parameters As You Record” on page 23).
An unwanted note can be cleared in the step record mode by placing the cursor
under the offending note, holding the [CLEAR] key, and pressing the appro-
priate instrument pad.
Change the Quantize Value
If you press the [PAGE] key during step recording, a display like the following
While Recording
will appear.
You can now use the [INC] and [DEC] keys or [DATA] slider to change
the quantize value as required. This capability is handy when you want to
change to a quantize value that is more suited to a new part to be entered with-
out having to exit and re-enter the step record mode.
Press the [EXIT] key to return to the normal step record display.
