Recording a pattern
Realtime recording and
Step recording
Realtime recording
In this method, you strike the key pads while
listening to a metronome, and your performance
is recorded into the pattern exactly as you play
it. Even if the timing at which you strike the key
pads is not perfect, you can use the Quantize
function to correct your timing.
Step recording
In this method, you specify the timing (step) and
volume at which each instrument note will
sound, entering notes one by one. Even if you
don’t feel confident recording a pattern in real
time, step recording makes it easy to record a
pattern accurately.
You can also combine both realtime recording
and step recording to record a pattern.
For example, you can use step recording to edit a
portion of a realtime-recorded pattern, or use
step recording to create the basic portion of a
pattern and then use realtime recording to add
more sounds.
