MR/ZR GETTING STARTED GUIDE 

Q&A

  

 

 

Q: 

How can I get the Drum Machine patterns to play over MIDI?

 

 
A: 

Load the sequence and or drum pattern into the 16-track recorder  

Press the select sound button.  
Turn the Parameter knob and select the MIDI OUT instrument 
Change its MIDI channel to 10 
Press the Send to track button 
Follow the screen prompts to send the instrument to the rhythm track (10)  
Press System/MIDI, go to Edit MIDI Settings, press Enter 
Go to Xmit MIDI Clocks =, change to ON 
Keep in mind that while the drum machine is playing over MIDI, that there will 
NOT BE ANY SOUND on that track. 

 
 
Q: 

How do I assign an instrument in the 16 Track recorder to the AUX outs?

 

 
A: 

Press the System/MIDI button 

Press Enter 
Turn the Parameter knob to select Dry FX Bus Out = 
Turn the Value knob to select AUX 
Press the track button you wish to use the AUX outs 
Press the Routing button and select the DRY bus 

 
Q: 

How can I assign the drum machine to play using the AUX outs?

 

 
A: 

You are better off assigning the Insert effect bus to use the AUX outs. The 

drums will use the main outs and the other instrument(s) can use the aux. outs. 
To assign the drums to use the AUX outs, you would need to edit every drum kit 
so that each drum element was assigned to one effect bus. Then, that bus would 
have to be assigned to the aux. outs.

   

 
Q: 

Is there a way to expand the Sequencer memory?

 

 
A: 

The only means of expanding the Sequencer memory, is to assign more 

memory to the sequencer area in the

 

Librarian. It works like a seesaw. Push 

some memory from one location (like the sounds area) to another (like the song 
area). 
Press the Librarian button 
Choose Set up RAM memory and Press Enter 
Turn the Value knob to assign more memory to the SONG area

 

 
Q: 

There is a "hiccup" or slight pause in between sequences. Is there a fix for 

that?

 

 
A: 

Sorry, there is not a fix for the sequencer timing of the MR/ZR. You will have 

better results if you use an external hardware or software sequencer. Also 
consider sequencing the entire song in one sequence location. Doing it that way 
eliminates the need for having to string multiple sequences together.
