Basic Operation t The Submodes The submodes are accessed via the SUBMODE buttons below the MODE buttons. When a SUBMODE button is pressed, the submode corresponding to the currently selected main MODE is selected. For example, the PATTERN mode JOB submode will be slightly different from the SONG mode JOB submode. The chart below includes brief summaries of what the submodes do, and page references to the related sections in this manual. Mode GROOVE PLAY FX MIDI DELAY ARPEGGIO VOICE VOICE EDIT EFFECT SETUP DISK JOB EDIT SPLIT Description This submode makes it possible to adjust the pitch, timing, length, and velocity of notes via a 16thnote grid to create "grooves" that would not be possible with precise sequencer-like programming. A range of play effects which affect the sound only during playback, without actually changing the sequence data. Play effects include harmonize, beat stretch, clock shift, gate time, and velocity offset. MIDI Delay creates delay effects that can sound much the same as those created by conventional delay effect units, but the delays are created by manipulating the MIDI note data rather than the audio signal. This feature can be used to create simple automatic arpeggios based on notes played on the RM1x keyboard. The VOICE submode allows any of the RM1x's voices to be assigned to individual tracks, and includes volume, pan, and effect send controls for each track. This submode provides access to in-depth voice editing parameters that you can use to customize voices for your own sound. Detailed effect editing to add the finishing touches to your sound. The SETUP submode includes a LOW BOOST function, knob assignment for the RM1x's realtime control knobs, and individual output channel assignments for the internal tone generator and MIDI transmission. All disk operations can be accessed via this submode: save, load, file name, delete, rename, format, etc. Accesses the RM1x's extensive range of PATTERN, PATTERN CHAIN, and SONG jobs. The EDIT submode allows detailed editing of sequence data, so you have complete control over the pitch, timing, velocity, duration, and other parameters for each note. The PATTERN SPLIT submode lets you copy specified measures from one section to another section. The SONG SPLIT submode is similar, but it lets you copy specified measures from a song to a specified section.
