Creating drum patterns
When working on drum patterns created using a method
such as real-time recording, drum sounds may be
positioned at a resolution greater than that set using
“RES.” In this type of situation, the “
●
” may appear to
be split, and it will not be possible to edit the
corresponding performance data as is. In order to edit
this type of data, you will first of all need to increase the
resolution to match the drum sound’s input position.
4.
Press [PLAY] to check whether the pattern is as
required.
[PLAY] will light up and the drum pattern will be
played back.
Press [STOP] at the point where you want to stop playback.
5.
If you want to change the drum kit or tempo used for
checking, press [F4] (SETUP).
The Step Recording Setup screen will appear.
fig.20-016ed
6.
Move the cursor to “Tempo” and use the TIME/VALUE
dial to select a suitable tempo for checking your pattern.
fig.20-016fd
The tempo can be set anywhere within a range of 25.0 to
250.0 BPM. (Beats Per Minute—A value that indicates
the tempo in terms of the number of quarter notes
occurring in one minute.)
Note that the tempo set here is used only for checking that
the drum pattern is as required. In other words, this tempo
will not be saved with the drum pattern. (It is not possible
to set a specific tempo for a drum pattern.)
7.
Move the cursor to “Drum Kit” and select a new drum
kit using the TIME/VALUE dial.
fig.20-016gd
8.
Press [ENTER/YES].
The Step Recording Setup screen will be closed and the
original Step Recording screen will appear.
9.
Press [EXIT/NO] to end step recording.
The Drum Pattern Edit screen will appear once again.
fig.20-210d
10.
If you want to store the drum pattern that you have just
recorded, press [F4] (WRITE/COPY/DEL).
The Write/Copy/Delete screen for drum patterns will
appear.
fig.20-024d
11.
Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select the drum pattern to
which the data is to be saved.
Only user drum patterns and song drum patterns may
be selected for saving drum pattern data. You will not be
able to select a preset drum pattern at this time.
12.
Press [F4] (GO).
The drum pattern will be saved. When the message
“Complete!” appears, it indicates that saving has been
completed.
If you select a different drum pattern or load a new
song without saving the current pattern, all of the
newly recorded data will be lost. This data will also
be lost if you turn off the BR-1600CD before saving.
