Pattern Recording & Editing
Patterns can be edited in three ways:
•
Realtime Record
- Events are stored in the designated track as they are
played on the keypad or from the MIDI input port. Events are over-
dubbed into the track as the track plays and loops. The original channel
of each event is maintained when recorded.
Individual events can be erased by pressing the realtime erase button
and re-playing the event during the time that the event occurs in the
pattern.
•
Grid Editing
- In this mode, the sixteen trigger buttons become a time
grid. A note event is first selected and is then placed at any time location
by pressing the appropriate grid button.
The grid resolution can be changed to allow a whole measure or a frac-
tion of a measure to be displayed on the button grid.
•
Step Edit
- In this mode, you can single-step through the time locations
(bars, beats, & ticks) and place events anywhere you want.
The play button jumps from the current location to the next note value
as determined by the resolution setting.
The Asterisk
When a pattern (or song) has been edited and needs to be saved an asterisk
(*) appears in the display. The Save/Copy LED will also be flashing as a
reminder to save your work. The asterisk and your edits remain in the
single edit buffer even if you change patterns. Edits are only erased by
saving the pattern, editing another pattern, invoking the “Revert To Saved”
feature, or turning the unit off. Saving saves the current pattern and NOT
the edit buffer.
Standard MIDI Files
Patterns can also be imported from a Standard MIDI File (SMF) dump. SMF
type 0 files are imported with MIDI channels 1-16 going to the same
numbered MP-7 track. SMF type 1 files are imported with tracks 1-16 going
to the same numbered MP-7 track. Tracks 17 and above will not be
imported into MP-7.
