Next, let’s try recording your performance to the DTXPRESS’ sequencer.
With song data you record you can switch drum kits, change the tempo and playback
in the same way as preset songs.
* When there is data in the other track, the number of mea-
sures in that track will determine the length of the song.
2-2. Select the Record Mode
Select the method for recording from the following record
modes.
Overwrite ( Ovr ): The record operation will be in a repeat
mode. When the song reaches the end of the last mea-
sure, it will automatically start again from the beginning
and new data will be added to the track’s previous data.
Replace ( Rpl ): When the song reaches the end of the as-
signed measure or the [START/S] button is pressed, re-
cording will stop (will not repeat).
2-3. Set the Track For Recording
Select either track 1 or 2 for recording.
2-4. Set the Metronome’s Tempo and Beat
Set the tempo and beat that will be used by the Metronome
when recording.
2-5. Set the Quantize Function
The Quantize function is used to align the timing of your per-
formance with that of the nearest specified beat. The accuracy
of quantization is assigned with a note value. The quantize
function can be used when recording.
* If this function is set to “
no
”, the quantize function will not
operate.
* You can use the Quantize function after recording is com-
plete. (P. 49)

Recording System
• Recording can be done in any of the user songs (No. 96-127)
that supplied for recording. You cannot record to preset songs
(No. 1-95).
• User songs contain 2 tracks that can be recorded to. Record-
ing can be done one track at a time.
• The song records (memory) data that precisely relates to when
and how each pad was hit, and stores that information. This
is called sequence data. MIDI data from the MIDI IN/TO
HOST jacks can be recorded simultaneously.
• Sequence data can be freely used to change the tempo, select
the voice or drum kit during playback.

P. 48 [2. Program Change, Bank Select]
• Before recording, set the number of measures for the song
you want to record. Recording is done in real-time. When
the end of the assigned measure is reached, the record func-
tion can be set to act in one of two ways. (1) The song will
automatically stop (Replace) and recording will be complete.
(2) The song will repeat from its beginning and further data
can be added to the previously recorded data (Overwrite).
OK, Let’s Start Recording
1. Select the Song You Want To Record
Press the [PLAY] button to display the Drum Kit & Song dis-
play, select a User Song number (No. 96-127).
* User songs that already contain data in both tracks cannot
be recorded to.
* If a song is not selected when you start to record, the lowest
numbered empty user song will automatically be selected to
record. In the same manner, an empty user song will be se-
lected if a preset song has been selected for recording.
2. Set the Recording Conditions
Hold the [SHIFT] button and press the [START/S] button, the
following Recording Conditions setting display will appear.
Use the [SEL
<

want to set, then use the [VALUE–]/[VALUE+] buttons to set
each of the following recording conditions.

How Quantize Works (an example)
• Recorded notes were not played in time.
Just Timing
3. Start Recording
Press the [START/S] button, after a two-measure count record-
ing will start. Record while listening to the metronome’s click
voice.
* When the track assigned for recording contains data and
the [START/S] button is pressed, the error message “
Data
not Empty ” will appear and the recording operation will
not be carried out.
• The Quantize Function aligns the timing.
