TS-12 Musician’s Manual Section 11 — Sequencer Parameters

GOTO — Sequence Autolocate Control

Displays the GOTO sub-page where the auto-locator destination is set. Use the GOTO function

to quickly locate to any bar and beat within the sequence, in order to play or record from there.

• Press GOTO. The display shows:

GOTO will be flashing and the destination may be set using the Data Entry Slider or the

Up/Down Arrow buttons. Notice there is now a cursor (underline) beneath the bar value at

the BAR/BEAT parameter. Press the soft button beneath BAR/BEAT to move the cursor

between the Bar and Beat. Continued presses of the BAR/BEAT parameter will toggle

between the bar and beat values.

• After selecting a new location to go to, press the GOTO soft button again to complete the

locating process and return to the main Locate page. The GOTO function provides a quick

and easy way to repeatedly locate to a certain place in a sequence — the destination remains

set until a new sequence or song is selected.

• After using the GOTO function to locate to a spot in the sequence, press Stop/Continue to

begin playing the sequence from that point.

Setting the GOTO Locate Time While the Sequence Plays

You can set the location of the GOTO time “on the fly” as the sequence plays:

• Press Play to begin playing the sequence.

• When the sequence reaches the point where you want to set the GOTO location, press GOTO.

The display momentarily shows LOCATE TIME SET - STOP TO LOCATE, and installs that

time as the GOTO location.

• Press Stop•Continue (or let the sequence end).

• Now if you press GOTO twice, it will go to the same location that was set as when it was playing.

Song Locate Page

• Select a song from one of the Sequencer Bank pages.

• Press Locate. When a song is selected, the Locate page shows:

Current Song Location (Step + Rep)

Tempo Auto-locate Control

Location in current

Step (Bar + Beat)

Sequence in

Current Song Step

Note that the Sequencer Status (shown in the lower left corner of the display) now shows SNGS,

for Song Stop, indicating that a song is selected.
