Adding an accent to an instrument’s performance

When using INST-PLAY (realtime performance) or INST-REC (realtime
recording), you can hold down the ACCENT [STEP] button and press a
pad to add an accent to the specified step.
To adjust the volume of the accent, use the ACCENT [LEVEL] knob in
the same way as for TR-REC (step recording).

INST-REC (realtime recording) now lets you record an accent at the
step location that you play.
Color indication of the instrument’s sound (tone)
When selecting a tone, the color that is shown when you press a pad
now distinguishes the tone.

Fixed a problem with ASSIGNABLE OUT
We have fixed a problem that had caused the effect sound to be sent
to MIX OUT when an instrument with reverb or delay applied was
assigned to ASSIGNABLE OUT.
* Properly speaking, an instrument assigned to ASSIGNABLE OUT
should not be output from MIX OUT.
