Style Creator
You can create your own Styles—recording them by yourself or by combining the
internal Style data. The created Styles can be edited.
Style Structure
Styles are made up of fifteen different sections and each section has eight separate
channels. With the Style Creator feature, you can create a Style by separately
recording the channels, or by importing pattern data from other existing Styles.
Creating a Style
You can use one of the three different methods described below to create a Style.
The created Styles can also be edited (page 117).
■
Realtime Recording
➤
See page 112
This method lets you record the Style by simply playing the instrument. You can
select an internal Style that most closely matches your image of the Style you want
to create and then re-record parts of the Style as desired, or you can create a new
Style from scratch.
■
Step Recording
➤
See page 115
This method is like writing music notation on paper, since it allows you to enter
each note or individually, and specify its length.
This allows you to create a Style without having to play the parts on the instrument,
since you can enter each event manually.
■
Style Assembly
➤
See page 116
This convenient feature lets you create composite Styles by combining various pat-
terns from the internal preset Styles. For example, if you want to create your own
original 8-beat Style, you could take rhythm patterns from the “Live8Beat” Style,
use the bass pattern from “Cool8Beat” Style and import the chord patterns from the
“8BeatModern” Style—combining the various elements to create one Style.
