Basics Of Using Riffs
Riffs are full songs or individual tracks of a song created in the PC3LE sequencer that you can
trigger in setup mode. Every zone in a setup can have it ʹ s own riff—a completely independent
sequence. Riffs can be used to accompany your playing like a backing track, but riffs give you
more options such as endless looping, stopping or starting different instrument parts, the ability
to transpose instruments or change tempo during playback, and many other options.
Read this section to learn the basic concepts and settings needed for using riffs. Here we will
look at some of the factory setups that use riffs in common ways.
Adding A Riff, Sync Riffs
The easiest way to add a riff to a setup is to create a new zone which will be dedicated to playing
a riff. For this tutorial, we will look at a setup that contains a drum riff, and add a horn riff that
will play in sync with the drums.
1. Press the Exit button until you reach the ProgramMode page. Next, press the Setup mode button,
located with the mode buttons to the left of the display. This will bring you to the Setup mode main
page.
2. Use the - / + buttons or Alpha Wheel to select the setup 54 Acoustic Split or use the alphanumeric
pad to enter 54 and press Enter (see below.) This setup splits the keyboard between an upright bass
program on the lower notes of the keyboard and piano layered with strings on the higher notes of
the keyboard. There is also a drum riff the plays from pad 1.
3. With the setup 54 Acoustic Split selected, press the Edit button on the front panel. This will bring
you to the CH/PROG page of the setup editor (see below.)
