5. PERFORM MODE
Press the PERF button to switch into Perform mode. In Perform mode you can select and edit
drum kits and patterns, in a way similar to many "vintage" drum machines. In Perform mode,
sound parameter changes ARE NOT recorded and played back as in Perform Write mode (see
below). The Xbase09's speciality is programming patterns in Pattern Write mode.
5.1 Perform Play Mode (Pattern playback)
You can select from 64 patterns that are arranged in four banks with 16 patterns each.
To select a bank, press SHIFT/Bank No. and set the desired bank number with the UP/DOWN
buttons. One of the four bank LEDs will display which bank you have selected.
To select a pattern within that bank, press one of the 16 step buttons. The respective patterns step
button will light up.
Patterns can be selected while the sequencer is running.
If the XBase gets Midi-Programm-Change orders, the patterns are changed.
Pressing the START button causes the sequencer to play the pattern from its beginning. To stop
the sequencer, press STOP/CONT. Pressing STOP/CONT again will make it continue playing
back from the point where STOP/CONT was last pressed.
5.2 Selecting Drum kits
Pressing the UP/DOWN buttons selects a drum kit. In the ROM-section are 100 already
programmed drumkits stored. The display reads r00 to r99.
By stepping over r99, hitting the UP-button, you reach the RAM-section. The display now reads
f00. When you are on kit r00 (ROM 00), you reach RAM-kit 99 by hitting the DOWN-button
(now display reads f99 ).
You can select a new drum kit while the sequncer is running.
The Hihat sample - select function (see pattern functions) can be used here to trigger other
samples for closed or open hihat and for editing the hihat section's sound parameters.
5.3 Creating and storing your custom drumkits
Select a drum kit you want to edit or an empty drum kit memory slot and set the parameters for
bass drum, snare drum and hihat.
The dot in the display indicates that the selected drum kit has been edited and not yet stored.
To store an edited kit, press the SHIFT button and select the "Store Kit" function (step button 8).
Select the memory slot where you want to store the kit by using the UP/DOWN buttons. Press
ENTER to store the kit to that memory slot. Press SHIFT to abort. To edit ROM-kits you don`t
like, you have to copy the kit you want to change into the RAM-section like described above.
