Firmware Version 1.60 New Functions
This section explains functions that are changed with firmware version 1.60.
■ Addition of Am to PLAY CHORD for PATTERN RECORDER recording
(Both MZ-X500 and MZ-X300)
PLAY CHORD Am now also can be selected in addition to PATTERN RECORDER settings Off, C, C7, and Cm.
When creating a minor key accompaniment, selecting Am makes it possible to input data using only white keys.
■ Expanded maximum number of element measures that can be created with PATTERN
SEQUENCER
(Both MZ-X500 and MZ-X300)
Up to 32 measures can be specified for elements other than Fill-in on the ELEMENT EDIT screen of PATTERN
SEQUENCER. Up to four measures can be specified for Fill-in.
■ Support for copying between different elements with the PATTERN SEQUENCER Part Copy and
Element Copy
(Both MZ-X500 and MZ-X300)
1) Part Copy
Copying between different elements is possible while the Event Only setting is On. In this case, you can specify the
measure(s) to be copied. Parameters are described below.
• Source
Start Measure: All, 1 to 32
Specifies the start measure of the copy source. Specifying All copies all measures. If the number of destination
pattern measures is greater than the number of source measures, the copied pattern is repeated. Data that exceeds
the number of destination pattern measures is not copied.
Length: 1 to 32
Specifies the number of measures to be copied. This setting cannot be specified when All is selected for the Start
Measure.
• Destination
Start Measure: 1 to 32
Specifies the start measure of the copy destination. This setting cannot be specified when All is selected for the
Source Start Measure.
• If the status of the destination data is Fixed, the destination data is cleared and then the data is copied to the
destination.
• When the Event Only setting is On, the event when the C chord is played is copied. Data created with Cm, Am
and C7 may be different from the recorded data.
2) Element Copy
Data can be copied between different element types (except for Fill-in). You cannot specify the number of measures
to be copied.
■ Support for selection of tones other than Drums for the Drum part and Percussion part with
PATTERN SEQUENCER
(Both MZ-X500 and MZ-X300)
You can select non-Drums tones even for the Drum and Percussion parts on the PATTERN RECORDER screen and
MIXER EDIT screen.
■ Addition of items to REGISTRATION FILTER
(Both MZ-X500 and MZ-X300)
Equalizer and Compressor items have been added to REGISTRATION FILTER.
