Creating drum patterns
using real-time recording
When a MIDI keyboard is connected to the MIDI IN
port, you will be able to use this keyboard to perform
real-time recording. Note that there is no need to set a
MIDI channel for the MIDI keyboard in such a case (p.
254).
1. After carrying out the steps described in “Preparing for
recording,” press [F2] (REC).
The Pattern Recording screen will appear.

2. Press [F2] (REALTIME).
The Real-Time Recording standby screen will appear
and the metronome will start.

3. Move the cursor to “BPM” and select a suitable tempo
for recording using the TIME/VALUE dial.
fig.20-011ad
Note that this only sets the tempo for recording—the
drum pattern is not recorded at this tempo. (It is not
possible to set a specific tempo for a drum pattern.)
If you tap your finger on [TAP] four or more times, the
tempo will be set accordingly.
4. Move the cursor to “METRO” and set the metronome
volume using the TIME/VALUE dial.
5. Press [PLAY].
Real-time recording will start after a one-measure
countdown.

6. Use the track buttons to play the desired drum pattern
and use the track faders to set the velocity (dynamics)
of the sounds.
The relationship between track buttons and drum
sounds is as follows.
7. If you want to erase an error in the recorded pattern,
press [F3] (ERASE).
fig.20-012ad
The message “ERASE:ON” will appear and drum erase
mode will be activated. In this mode, hold down the
track button corresponding to the drum sound you want
to erase. Any of these drum sounds played in the pattern
while you are pressing the track button will be erased.
When you have finished erasing drum sounds, press [F3]
(ERASE) once again.
8. Press [STOP] at the point where you want to stop
recording.
The Pattern Recording screen will appear once again.
9. Press [EXIT/NO].
The Drum Pattern Edit screen will appear once again.
10. Press [F3] (WR•CPY•DEL).
The Write screen for drum patterns will appear.
