CSet the Required Resolution ... TAP METRONOME - + [ 0 0 1 ] CUSTOM NORMAL œ= 78 QUANTIZE ON The initial resolution for custom rhythm programming is 16th (for doublet-type beats) or 12th notes (for triplet-type beats): "QUANTIZE ON" will appear on the display when the PROGRAM mode is engaged. This means that all entered notes will be adjusted to fall on the nearest 16th or 12th beat. If you need greater resolution for free-tempo passages, switch to 96th-note resolution by pressing the [TAP] key ("QUANTIZE OFF" will appear on the display). You can return to 16th (12th) note resolution at any time by pressing the [METRONOME] button. VEnter the Rhythm ... CANCEL CLEAR ALL You can now add new notes to the selected rhythm accompaniment by playing the keyboard percussion keys at the appropriate timing. Keyboard velocity sensitivity lets you add accents and dynamics as required. The rhythm pattern is two measures long (the current measure number will appear on the display), and the pattern will continue to repeat so you can add new instruments during each repeat, if necessary. F6 G6 NOTES • If you want to create a totally new rhythm from scratch, press the [CLEAR ALL] (G6) key and the [CANCEL] key simultaneously before beginning to program. This cancels all the instruments in the original accompaniment, leaving only a metronome sound (the metronome sound is not recorded).
