Creating a chain
1.
Press the [Chain/Playlist] button to turn on the chain
function (the button lights up).
2.
Use the [F1] button and [F2] button to select the chain
bank.
You can create up to 30 banks of chains. When the
STAGEMAN 80 starts up, the first chain (C01) is selected.
3.
Hold down the [Chain/Playlist] button until it blinks.
The three buttons [Chain/Playlist], [Set/OK], and [Clear/
Cancel] blink, indicating that you can now register a
rhythm style for each measure.
The LED of the [
] button blinks when the rhythm
style is playing.
The display indicates the measure number. The [M1]–[M8]
buttons blink as a guide to eight-measure units of the
specified measure location.
If you’ve selected a chain where a rhythm style is already
registered, you’ll hear the rhythm style that is registered at
the first measure or at the specified measure.
If no rhythm style has yet been registered for the chain,
you’ll hear the “8 BEAT1” rhythm style, which is registered
by default for the first measure.
4.
Specify the tempo.
5.
Use the [(1) 8 BEAT1]–[(24) SAMBA] buttons, [VAR]
button, [F1] button, and [F2] button to specify the rhythm
style, variation, and fill-in that you want to register.
6.
Press the [Set/OK] button to confirm registration of the
rhythm style.
The rhythm style is registered to that measure, and
you move to the next measure. For measures where the
registration has been completed, the corresponding button
([M1]–[M8]) changes to steadily lit up.
7.
To specify the measure where you want to register a
rhythm style, use the [
] or [
] button.
8.
Repeat steps 5–7 to continue the registration process.
You can register rhythm styles for up to 999 measures in
one chain.
9.
To cancel the rhythm style of the specified measure, press
the [Clear/Cancel] button.
The [M1]–[M8] button corresponding to that measure goes
dark.
10.
If you want to add one measure before the specified
measure, hold down the [Set/OK] button for
approximately one second. If you want to delete the
specified measure, hold down the [Clear/Cancel] button
for approximately one second.
11.
To register the position of the last measure, press the
[
] button to make the LED go dark, and then press
the [Set/OK] button. If you want to register an ending
pattern to end the performance, press the [TAP/END]
button to make the LED light up, and then press the
[Set/OK] button.
12.
When you are finished registering rhythm styles, press
the [Chain/Playlist] button (the button lights up).
All settings and the tempo are confirmed at this time.
13.
To hear the newly created chain from the first measure,
press the [VAR] button to return to the first measure, and
then press the [
] button to play back.
Playing the chain you created
1.
With the [Chain/Playlist] button lit up, press the
[
] button.
The registered rhythm styles play, starting from the first
measure. When playback reaches the last measure, it stops.
During playback, you can press the [
] button to
pause. Press the button once again to resume playback
from the paused location.
If you press the [VAR] button during playback, playback
stops and you return to the first measure.
Deleting all rhythm styles registered to the entire
chain

Use the [F1] and [F2] buttons to select the chain from
which you want to delete all the rhythm styles you
registered.
The number of the selected chain (C**) appears in the
display.
2.
Hold down the [Delete] button until it lights.
The [Set/OK] and [Clear/Cancel] buttons blink. The chain
number shown in the display blinks.
3.
Press the [Set/OK] button.
When the [Delete] button goes dark, deletion is complete.
The chain now has the default settings (the 8 BEAT1
rhythm style is registered).
Metronome function
This lets you sound the metronome in the time signature and
tempo that you specify.
1.
Press the [Metronome] button to turn on the metronome
(the button lights up).
2.
Use the [(1) 8 BEAT1]–[(16) BLUES2] buttons to select a
sound for the metronome.

Use the VALUE dial to set the tempo of the metronome.
Tip:
You can also use the [TAP/END] button to set the
tempo.
4.
Use the RHYTHM/PLAY knob to adjust the volume of
the metronome.
Note:
The sound of the metronome is not recorded even if
you record while the metronome is playing.
Note:
In Rhythm mode, you can choose whether to play the
metronome or a rhythm style. If the metronome is playing,
pressing the
[
]
button turns the metronome off, and
switches to rhythm style playback.
In Recorder mode, only the metronome can be used. In Player
mode, neither can be used.
About the metronome time signature
The metronome time signature is normally set to 4/4 (while
you hold down the [Metronome] button, the display shows
“04:04”). If you want to change the time signature, hold down
the [Metronome] button and turn the VALUE dial. You can
choose from the following time signatures: 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 7/4,
5/8, 6/8, 7/8, 9/8, and 12/8.
