Hit the pad with the first pattern to start real-time
input.
Hitting a pad in this condition starts real-time input, and the
first pattern starts to play. To select the next pattern, hit the
desired pad. The pattern will switch at the next measure
boundary.
In the factory default condition, the song numbers 00 -
11contain only short fill-in patterns assigned to the
pads marked FILL 1 and FILL 2. Only when using
these pads, the pattern will switch at the beat
boundary.
To terminate real-time input, press the [
■
] key.
The [
●
REC] and [
] key light go out, and real-time
input stops.
To listen to the recorded song, press the [
] key.
The song created with real-time input is played back. To
stop playback, press the [
■
] key.
A song created with real-time input can be edited in
the same way as a song created with step input.
If you have made a mistake, start the real-time input
process from the beginning again. (It is not possible to
make correction midway.)

In the final lesson, we will use "real-time input", which is another method for creating a song. With
this method, you assign desired patterns to the pads and play them in real time by hitting the pads.
What you play is recorded by the RT-323.
In song mode, select the song number (00 - 11) for
which you want to perform real-time input.
Normally, when you perform real-time input of a song, you
must first assign the patterns you wish to use to the pads. In
the default condition of the RT-323, various patterns are
already assigned to the pads for songs 00 - 11. In lesson 3,
we will use these preassigned patterns. (For information on
how to assign your own patterns, see page 56.)
The pattern assignment for each pad is stored
separately for each song.
Hit the pads.
Tapping a pad will play the pattern assigned to that pad.
This function is similar to groove play mode, but it differs in
the following regards.
• Pattern play continues also when you release a pad.
• When you hit another pad while a pattern is playing,
the pattern will switch at the beginning of the next
measure.
• Only one pattern can be played at a time.
Try out which patterns are assigned to the various pads. To
stop pattern play, press the [
■
] key.
While holding down the [
●
REC] key, press the
[
] key.
The [
●
REC] and [
] keys lights up, and the unit goes
into standby mode for real-time input.
Pressing the [
■
] key cancels real-time input.
