Modify Recording
This function lets you modify or edit the selected frame in real time.
Modify Recording differs from conventional realtime recording (p. 75) in that when you loop-record,
the data will be added to the same take. For example, you would use Modify Recording if you want
to record the kick on the first cycle, snare on the second, and hi-hat on the third.
1. Loop-playback a frame.
2. Click the Modify Record button shown below.

● Punch-in/out button
fig.03-ps21
When you press the punch-in/out button, the punch-in/out anchors will be displayed at the
beginning and end of the selected region in the time ruler of the scope editor screen. Recording
will apply to the region indicated by the punch-in/out anchors—anything you play outside this
region will not be recorded.
*The location of the punch-in/out anchors will move according to any increases or decreases due
to TIME editing.
3. In the locator area, press the record button ( ) and then press the play button ( ) to begin
recording. Perform by playing your MIDI keyboard and/or turning the PITCH/TIME/FORMANT
knobs
of the VariOS.
* You can also press the play button ( ) first, and then press the record button ( ). In this case,
recording will begin at the moment you press the record button, so you can practice while the
playback continues looping, and then press the record button when you are ready to record.
4. In the locator area, press the stop button ( ) to stop recording.
Realtime Recording
When loop-recording, the first cycle is recorded on take 1, the second as take 2,
and so on. Use the frame property parameter Frame Take to select your favorite
take.
Modify Recording
When loop-recording, the data recorded on each cycle is added to the same
take. Events will be added, and Pitch, Time, Formant, and Dynamics data will
be overwritten over the previously recorded data.
