Using Pads (Tutorial)
■ Phrase and Chord Progression Setting Items
• The “Length” and “Beat” settings cannot be changed
when overdubbing phrases. The settings of the first
phrase recorded are used.
■ Sampling Setting Items
Use the procedure below to record a phrase onto an
existing phrase and create a phrase that is a
combination of both.
1.
On the MENU screen, touch “PAD”.
This displays the PAD screen.
2.
Touch the number of the pad to which the
phrase you want to overdub is recorded
(original phrase).
A pad assigned data that is not a phrase cannot be
overdubbed.
3.
Touch the “0” icon.
This displays the PAD RECORD SELECT screen.
4.
Touch “Phrase Overdub”.
This displays the PAD RECORD WAIT screen.
5.
Play the overdub phrase using the keyboard,
pads, wheel, etc.
• This starts recording of the overdub phrase along
with playback of the original phrase you selected for
overdubbing. Phrase playback repeats, sounding
both the original phrase and anything you recorded
during the current overdubbing session. You can
overdub as many times as you like as the playback
repeats.
6.
After you are finished recording, touch “Y”.
7.
Save the overdub recording using the
procedure under “Saving Pad Data” (page
EN-51).
• The phrase length and beat setting of an overdub
recording operation are those of the original phrase.
• If the original phrase is less than one beat long,
recording will cause it to be extended to a length of
one beat.
