The Step Time, Gate Time Ratio and Velocity settings
of the previously input note are remembered. If you
wish to use the same settings for the next note, there is
no need to change the values of these parameters.

* In Step Recording 1, notes are always overwritten
(replaced) when they are recorded, meaning that if you
input notes in a location that already contained notes, the
previously recorded notes will be erased.
9. When you finish inputting notes, press
[STOP].
The pattern you recorded will be in the Temporary
Pattern (U:TMP). If you are happy with the pattern
that you recorded, use the Pattern Write operation to
save it as a user pattern.

Step Time and Gate Time
In general, Step Time is the length from one note to the
next, and Gate Time is the duration that the note will
actually sound (i.e., the length from when the note is
pressed until it is released).
For example, if you are inputting 16th notes (Step
Time = 24) with Gate Time Ratio = 80%, the actual
Gate Time will be input as 19.

Changing the Velocity/Gate Time values
assigned to each button
The Velocity and Gate Time Ratio values that are
assigned to each PART/RHYTHM button are only the
factory settings, and you are free to modify these if
desired.
To modify the assigned values, hold down the
PART/RHYTHM button whose setting you wish to
modify, and use [INC] [DEC] or the [VALUE] dial to
modify the value.
Range:
Velocity: 0Ð127
Gate Time Ratio: 1Ð200%

Various Ways to Input Notes
Inputting a chord
Hold down the notes that make up the chord, and
release all notes simultaneously. The chord will not be
input as long as even one note remains pressed, so you
can change notes to correct the chord.
Inputting a rest
Set the Step Time to the length of the desired rest, and
press [FWD/REST].
fig.10-37
Inputting a tie
Input the first note that you wish to tie, and press
[BWD/TIE]. This method can also be used to input
notes longer than a 16th note, or dotted notes, etc.
Example 1
To enter a quarter note, use [SCALE] to make the sec-
ond indicator from the top light and input a note, and
then press [BWD] twice without changing the Step
Time. (Alternatively, you can input a 16th note and
press [BWD] three times without changing the Step
Time.)
