Sequencer
Overview
Overview PX-7’s sequencer is a Song/Pattern based recorder featuring high resolution 
recording at 384 ticks per beat. Multiple record modes - Song, Pattern, Grid, 
Step & Realtime Record - allow you ultimate flexibility in the way you 
compose you music. You can add, monitor and modify parts on the fly or 
switch recording modes without ever stopping the sequencer. The 
sequencer features 16 tracks, each of which can record from one (default) to 
16 channels. Automated mixing and synth control is a snap. Read on and 
discover just how fast and easy multitrack recording can be.
The diagram below shows the basic organization of the sequencer.
A Pattern can contain up to 16 tracks, each of which is normally assigned 
to a single channel and preset. (Tracks can also be set up to record and 
playback multiple MIDI channel if you wish.)
Songs can link patterns together to form more complicated arrangements. 
There is also an additional song track which can be used to record notes, 
controllers, pattern mutes or any other MIDI data. Songs can be of any 
length, unlike patterns which are limited to 32 bars.

A song can link patterns together and contains one extra track. Patterns can contain 
up to 16 tracks. By default, each track uses the same numbered MIDI channel and plays 
the preset on that channel.
