Step Record procedure
Here is the general procedure to follow for the Step Recording.
1.
Press SEQUENCER to enter Sequencer mode.
2.
Press the RECORD button, and select the “Multitrack
Sequencer” option to enter the Multitrack Record mode.
From the page menu, select the “Overdub Step Recording”
or “Overwrite Step Recording” mode. At this point, the
Step Record window will appear in the display.
3.
The next event will be entered at the position shown by the
Pos indicator in the upper right corner of the display.
• If you don’t want to insert a note at this position, insert a
rest instead, as shown in step 5.
• To jump to the next measure, filling the remaining beats
with rests, press the Next M. button in the display.
4.
To change the step value, use the Step Time parameters.
5.
Insert a note, rest or chord at the current position.
• To insert a single note, just play it on the keyboard. The
inserted note length will match the step length. You may
change the velocity and relative duration of the note, by
editing the Velocity and Duration parameters. See “Veloc-
ity” and “Duration” on page 179.
• To insert a rest, just press the Rest button in the display. Its
length will match the step value.
• To tie the note to be inserted to the previous one, press the
Tie button in the display. A note will be inserted, tied to the
previous one, with exactly the same pitch. You don’t need
to play it on the keyboard again.
• To insert a chord or a second voice, see “Chords and sec-
ond voices in Step Record mode” on page 115 of the “Style
Record mode” chapter.
6.
After inserting a new event, you may go back by pressing
the Back button in the display. This will delete the previ-
ously inserted event, and set the step in edit again.
7.
When finished recording, press the Done button in the dis-
play. A dialog box appears, asking you to either cancel, dis-
card or save the changes.
If you press, Cancel, exit is canceled, and you can continue
editing. If you choose No, changes are not saved, and the
Step Record window is closed. If you choose Yes, changes
are saved, and the Step Record window is closed.
8.
From the main page of the Multitrack Recording mode,
either select the “Exit from Record” command from the
page menu, or press the RECORD button to exit the
Record mode.

1 section to listen to the Song, or select the Save Song com-
mand from the page menu to save the Song to a card (see
