Recording note events to a Bass/Chord/Pad/Phrase part (channel)
............................
1
Select one of the parts (other than a Rhythm part) by following the instructions in step #4 of
“Basic Procedure” on page 116.
You cannot record new material to the Bass/Chord/Pad/Phrase part (channel) that has preset data. If the
selected part to be recorded has preset data, make sure to delete it (in step #4 of “Basic Procedure” on page
116).
2
Start recording.
You can start recording in one of two ways:
• Press the STYLE CONTROL [START/STOP] button.
• Press the STYLE CONTROL [SYNC START] button to enable Synchro Start standby, then play a key
on the keyboard.
Turn the playback parts on/off as desired.
The recording repeats indefinitely (until stopped) in a loop. Notes that you record will play back from the next
repetition, letting you record while hearing previously recorded material.
Rules when recording non-rhythm parts
●
Use only the CM7 scale tones when recording the BASS and PHRASE parts (i.e., C,
D, E, G, A, and B).
●
Use only the chord tones when recording the CHORD and PAD parts (i.e., C, E, G,
and B).
Using the data recorded here, the auto accompaniment (style playback) is appropriately
converted depending on the chord changes you make during your performance. The
chord which forms the basis for thios note conversion is called the Source Chord, and
is set by default to CM7 (as in the example illustration above).
You can change the Source Chord (its root and type) fromthe PARAMETER display on page 120. Keep in
mind that when you change the Source Chord from the default CM7 to another chord, the chord notes and
recommended notes will also change. For details on chord notes and recommended notes, see page 121.

Press the STYLE CONTROL [START/STOP] button again to stop recording (and looped
playback).
Step Recording for Notes using the Event List
The explanations here apply when you call up the EDIT page in step #4 of the Basic Procedure on page 116. The EDIT page
contains the Event List, in which you can record notes with absolutely precise timing. This Step Recording procedure is essen-
tially the same as that for Song Recording (pages 100 - 105), with the exception of the points listed below:
• In the Song Creator, the End Mark position can be changed freely; in the Style Creator, it cannot be changed. This is because
the length of the style is automatically fixed, depending on the selected section. For example, if you create a style based on
a section of four measures length, the End Mark position is automatically set to the end of the fourth measure, and cannot
be changed in the Step Recording display.
• Recording channels (parts) can be changed in the Song Creator; however, they cannot be changed in the Style Creator.
• In the Style Creator, only the 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 LCD [F] button.
• For the INTRO and ENDING sec-
tions, any appropriate chord or
chord progression can be used.
(You need not follow the rules
described at left.)
• If you want to record the pattern
with a Source Chord other than
CM7, set the PLAY ROOT and
PLAY CHORD parameters on the
PARAMETER page (page 120)
before performing step #2.
