Recording your performance in real time (Real-time input)

Here’s how to record your playing on the sample pads, the keyboard buttons and from an external MIDI device.

 

 

  1. Press the [ó] button.
  2. Press the [ø] button.
  3. Recording starts.
  4. Press sample pads or the [GRANULAR] pad, and start playing some notes.
  5. The timing of the notes and sounds you play on sample pads or the [GRANULAR] pad are recorded in the pattern.
  6. MEMO

    1. You can also record your playing in time with the metronome.
    2. Refer to the “Metronome” parameter for how to make the metronome play.
    3. When the [KYBD] button is on, the step buttons function as keyboard buttons.
    4. You can use the keyboard buttons to play the sample you’ve selected using the sample pads or the [GRANULAR] pad, as notes in a scale.
    5. Further, you can record this using real-time input.
    6. You can record what you play via real-time input from a external MIDI keyboard that’s connected to this unit.
    7. If you press the [ó] (QUANTIZE) button while holding down the [SHIFT] button, you can do real-time input while the data is being quantized (REC quantize).
    8. The display indicates “On”.
    9. When doing this, the timing of the notes you input in real time is aligned to the steps as you’re recording (the micro-timings of the notes are recorded as “0”).
    10. To turn REC quantize off, press the [ó] (QUANTIZE) button again while holding down the [SHIFT] button.
    11. The display indicates “OFF”.
    12. When you turn the [PITCH], [START], [END] or [LEVEL] knobs while recording, the motion of the knobs is also recorded.
    13. If a pattern is playing, you can make the recorded knob motions play back.
    14. Refer to “Recording the knob motions” for details.
  7. To finish recording, press the [ó] button.
  8. This ends the pattern recording.
