You can switch the drum kit/bass program during real-time
recording (
→
p. 64), and you can change the volume of the
metronome click (
→
p. 90).
For step input, you enter each note separately, while the
rhythm pattern is in the stop condition. This makes it easy
to enter even complex drum patterns or bass lines that
might be difficult to achieve with real-time input.
For drum sequence step input, you specify the step length
(interval to next note or rest) using the quantize value.
Then you enter notes and rests.
When you hit a pad and then press the PLAY [
R
]
(RHYTHM STEP) key, playing (note) information is
entered at that point, and the step advances by an interval
corresponding to the current quantize value. The intensity
with which you hit the pad is also recorded.
If you only press the PLAY [
R
] (RHYTHM STEP) key,
no playing information is entered, but the step advances
by an interval corresponding to the current quantize
value. This becomes a rest (see illustration below).

display shows the quantize value, and the second line
shows the currently selected pad bank number. The
counter shows the current position in measures/beats/
ticks.
