To specify a chord, hold down the key on the root input keyboard
that specifies the root, and press the key in the chord type input key-
board to specify the chord type. When inputting a chord with a spec-
ified bass note, pressing two keys of the root input keyboard causes
the lower note to be specified as a bass note.
Example 1: To input Gm7, hold down G on the root input keyboard
and press the m7 key on the chord type input keyboard.
(G)
Hold down key to specify chord
root.
Example 2: To input Gm/C, hold down C and G on the root input
keyboard and press the m key on the chord type input
keyboard.
(C)
(G)
Hold down keys to specify on bass
and chord root.
Specifying the Length of a Note
During step recording, the number buttons are used to specify the
length of each note.
• Note lengths
Use number buttons [1] through [6] to specify whole notes ( ), half
notes ( ), quarter notes ( ), eighth notes ( ), 16th notes ( ), and
32nd notes ( ).
Example: To specify a quarter note ( ), press [3].
• Dots ( ) and triplicates (
)
While holding down the [7] (dot) or [9] (triplicate), use buttons [1]
through [6] to input the lengths of the notes.
Example: To input a dotted eighth notes ( ), hold down [7] and
press [4].
• Ties
Press [8] and then input the first and then the second note.
Example: To input
, press [8] and then press [4] (note length)
while holding down [7] (dot). This note will be tied to the
next note you input (16th note in this example).
• Rest
Hold down [0] and then use number buttons [1] through [9] to spec-
ify the length of the rest.
Example: To input an eighth note rest, hold down [0] and press [4].
Track 1 Step Recording Variations
The following describes a number of different variations you can use
when recording to Track 1 using step recording. All of these varia-
tions are based upon the procedure described under "To record chords
to Track 1 using step recording." on page E-28.
To start accompaniment with an intro pattern
In step 5, press the INTRO button after the SYNCHRO/ENDING
button.
To switch to a rhythm variation
In step 6, press the VARIATION/FILL-IN button immediately before
inputting the chord.
474A-E-031A
(m7)
Press key to specify chord
type.
(m)
Press key to specify chord type.
To insert a fill in
In step 6, press the NORMAL/FILL-IN or VARIATION/FILL-IN but-
ton at the measure or beat immediately before the chord or beat where
you want to insert the fill in.
To insert an ending
In step 6, press the SYNCHRO/ENDING button at the measure or beat
immediately before the chord where you want to insert the ending.
IMPORTANT!
The length of the ending depends on the rhythm you are using.
Check the length of the pattern you are using and set the length of
the chord accordingly in step 7. Making the chord too short in step 7
can result in the ending pattern being cut off.
To step record chords without rhythm
After performing steps 1 through 4, you can use the number buttons
to input the length of the specified chord. Skipping step 5 (not press-
ing the SYNCHRO/ENDING button) creates chord without rhythm,
so you can input a rest by pressing the [0] button in step 6 and then
specifying the length of the rest in step 7.
To add chord accompaniment part way through rhythm
play
In step 6, input all rests from the beginning of the recording up to the
point where you want accompaniment to start. Next, input the chords.
Step Recording Melody to Track 2
You can use step recording to input notes one-by-one in Track 2. This
technique is perfect for those who want to make original recordings,
but are not accomplished enough to play along with rhythm.
Note that step recording of melody notes can be performed in Track
2 only.
