Song Mode
The MAIN Page
8-11
Time Signat
Use this parameter to set the time signature of the current song.
Overdub Mode
If Overdub Mode is set to Merge you will be able to overdub when recording on a track
containing previously recorded events. You’ll usually want to set Overdub Mode to Merge
when Record Mode is set to Loop. Otherwise, each time through the loop, the previously
recorded information will be erased.
If you set Overdub Mode to Erase, the previously recorded events on the record enabled
track will be replaced with the new events only during the Bars and Beats you are actually
recording, and the previously recorded events before and after the newly recorded Bars and
Beats will be preserved.
Record Mode
With the Record Mode parameter set to Linear, Song mode will record normally, from
where ever you start, to where ever you stop, or until the Song End point is reached. With
the Record Mode parameter set to PunchIn, Song mode will record events only between the
points set for Time In and Time Out parameters.
To use the UnLoop setting, the Loop parameter must be set to Loop, and a loop length must
be set with the Time In and Time Out parameters. With the Record Mode parameter set to
Unloop, any existing tracks will be played back as if they were looping from the Time In to
the Time Out point, but they are actually being re-recorded linearly over absolute Bars and
Beats until you press Stop. UnLoop allows you to record a linear track over a short looping
section without first having to copy the section over and over again to achieve a new desired
Song length. The End point of the Song is extended to the downbeat of the (empty) Bar
immediately following the last Bar you were recording when Stop was pressed.
For example, let’s say you have a recorded a four bar drum loop and now want to record an
eight bar bass line. This would be a situation where UnLoop would come in handy. While
the drum track keeps looping, the bass track will record in linear fashion, and the end point
will be moved to the point at which you press Stop. Actually, the drum track will also change.
It will play through its loop twice, but while the information is repeating in the loop, it will
be recorded to the track. So now if you look at the drum track, you will see information in
bars 5-8 (a duplicate of the information in bars 1-4).
Loop
With the Loop parameter set to On, the sequencer will loop the segment of the song between
Time In and Time Out. Set Loop to Off for regular playback.
