2.9A Add a New Drum to a Step Use the PAGE buttons to select the step where the drum is to be added. Press the pad that corresponds to the sound you want to add. That drum, along with its volume (how hard the pad was hit), will be recorded into the displayed step. If you play a pad and there is already a drum event played by that pad on the displayed step, you will edit the volume rather than add another event. This is true even if there are several events on the displayed beat, and an event other than the one to be edited is showing. 2.9B Erase a Drum Sound From a Step Use the PAGE buttons to locate the step containing the drum to be erased. While holding down the ERASE button, press PLAY. The drum that was being displayed will be erased. 2.9C Change a Drum Sound's Volume in a Given Step Use the PAGE buttons to select the step containing the drum whose volume needs to be changed. Either press a number button from 1-8 (1=softest, 8=loudest), use the INC/DEC buttons, or tap the displayed drum pad at the desired level. If you play a pad to change the level and there are several events on the same step, the display need not show the specific drum whose volume you want to edit. 2.9D Exit Step Mode To exit step mode, press STOP, RECORD SETUP, or PLAY (the latter will begin playing the Pattern from the beginning). 2.10 PAGE 10: NAME THE PATTERN (NAME) NO NAME NAME SETUP RECORD PATTERN A PAGE PERFORM The display shows NAME and the current name (or NO NAME if the Pattern has not yet been named). To name, use the PAGE UP/DOWN buttons to select the character to be changed; select the desired character with the INC/DEC buttons. Lower case and upper case letters, numbers, punctuation, and various special-purpose characters are available. You can also enter numbers with the number buttons. 18
