explained in detail in the next section.) Repeat this

You will get a message of "Are you sure?", so press
This completes step recording.
USING THE BAR GRAPH
First we will explain the various items in the bar graph
display. The bar graph shows the following information.
(1) Bar number
This shows the number of bars (measures) in this pattern.
The bar graph (3) displays one measure at a time, so
when creating a pattern of 2 or more measures, this
number will indicate where you are in the pattern.
(2) Quantize
This shows the quantize setting you specified in the
“ > Qntz” setting before pressing To change the
quantize setting while recording, move the cursor to
“ > Qntz” and press one of the following keys.
Set quantization to 1/4 (quarter note)
Set quantization to 1/8 (eighth note)
Set quantization to 1/16 (sixteenth
note)
Set quantization to 1/32 (thirty-se-
cond note)
Set quantization to 1/6, 1/12, or 1/24.
When quantization is set to 1/4
pressing this key will set
quantization to 1/6
When quantization is set to 1/8
pressing this key will set
quantization to 1/12
When quantization is set to 1/16
pressing this key will set
quantization to 1/24
Pressing this key again will erase the
symbol.
Turn quantization off.
Note:
Quantization can be modified only when the cursor
(–) is at the beginning of the bar graph. If the cursor
is anywhere else when you modify the quantization,
the displayed quantization value will blink (indicating
that it is not yet active) until you return the cursor
to the beginning of the bar graph.
(3) Bar graph
The bar graph displays the data of a single rhythm in-
strument for one measure. For example, if the time
signature is 4/4, the bar graph will be as follows.
Or, if the time signature is 6/8, the bar graph will be
as follows.
