another. For instance, a note previously recorded at 12/16 quan-
tization at 7/12 cannot be displayed exactly in 16/16 quantiza-
tion, and a * is therefore used.
Step Writing
After you have entered Step Write mode and pressed START to
begin writing, the basic procedure is as follows:
Select an instrument
by pressing an instrument key. The
display will change to show all notes currently entered for
that instrument.
Enter a beat by pressing an instrument key. The position will
advance one beat.
Enter a rest by pressing №.
Usethe 4 and № keys to move back and forth in the pattern.
If you try to move beyond the beginning or end of the pattern,
you will get a message of "Top !" or "End !".
You can jump to the beginning of the pattern by pressing
START. As you advance through the pattern, you will hear all
the voices.
If you press an instrument key while pressing EFFECT, RE-
VERSE, ACCENT or PITCH (you can press any or all), the
voice will be recorded with the corresponding variation. This
can be edited later.
Pattern Editing
To erase a beat, use or to move to the desired beat, hold BEAT
CLEAR and press the instrument key for the voice to be erased.
Every note of every voice in a pattern has its own Accent level
(+/-63), Pan setting (+/-14), Pitch shift (+/-24), Effect switch
(on/off) and
Reverse switch (on/off). Press ACCENT,
PAN
(ACCENT
+
PITCH), PITCH, EFFECT or REVERSE and use the +1/YES or
- ИМО keys to change each type of setting. (See notes | and 2,
below.) The following example shows a Pitch edit:
-24 — +24 semitones
SD 1 UE
0
The value specified here will be added to the Pitch value as de-
termined in VOICE
EDIT.
Every note of every voice in the
pattern may have any or all of the above parameters edited.
Note 1:
If you have specified Poly ON for a voice (see Voice Edit), it
is possible to enter two notes of a single voice in a single beat.
Each press of ACCENT,
PITCH, EFFECT, REVERSE,
or
PAN (ACCENT + PITCH keys) will alternately display the
settings for the two notes. For example if you had entered two
notes of SD І (at different pitches) on the same beat, pressing
PITCH would alternately display the pitches of the two notes.

added to the Voice Edit settings for the voice. The total of the
Voice Edit setting and the setting for each note may not fall
outside the range allowed in Voice Edit. For example, if the
PAN for a certain instrument has been set to 15 (full right) in
Voice Edit, giving a note a Pan setting above 0 will have no
effect, since the maximum value will be exceeded.
А "!" mark
after the setting in the display will notify you that the dis-
played setting exceeds the maximum (or minimum).

A different Quantize value can be selected by pressing JOB+2 to
return to the Step Write sub-job menu and set a different Quan-
tize value. Press START
to begin Step Writing again. Press
STOP/CONTINUE
to exit Step Write and return to the Select
Pattern display.

Press JOB+0 to return to wherever you
were in Step Write.
STEP WRITE SUB-JOBS
Step Write mode has two sub-jobs: Length and Quantize. Use 4
and
№ (or JOB+1
or 2) to select the sub-job.
Subjob 1: LENGTH
If you are writing a new pattern, you will need to set the length
of the pattern. Use the +1/YES or -1/NO keys to set the length of
the pattern.
Pattern length 1 — 32/16

You cannot change the length of an already existing pattern (an
error message "! ALREADY SET '" will be displayed). A pattern
that contains no data will be initialized to 16/16.
