Chapter 20 DJ Performance Master Class • The timings indicated in the chart below are for example purposes only. The actual timing of the Variations and the marker meta-events (starting with Variation 2) depends on the length of the recorded Patterns. (The length of each Pattern can be up to 256 measures.) Initial Setup Timing 1|1|000 1|1|000 1|2|000 : 1|4|479 2|1|000 : 3|4|479 4|1|000 : 4|4|479 5|1|000 : 5|4|479 6|1|000 : 7|4|479 8|1|000 : 9|4|479 10|1|000 : 11|4|479 12|1|000 : 12|4|479 13|1|000 : 13|4|479 14|1|000 : 15|4|479 16|1|000 : 17|4|479 Marker Meta- Contents Event TG Reset Initial Setup Events 1 Variation 1 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) 2 Variation 2 1 bar Pattern (up to 256 bars) 3 Variation 3 1 bar Pattern (up to 256 bars) 4 Variation 4 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) 5 Variation 5 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) 6 Variation 6 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) 7 Variation 7 1 bar Pattern (up to 256 bars) 8 Variation 8 1 bar Pattern (up to 256 bars) 9 Variation 9 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) 10 Variation 10 2 bars Pattern (up to 256 bars) Source Pattern • Enter all voice and effect settings in the last three beats of the Initial Setup area (1|2|000 - 1|4|479). Do not include any note event data here. • Start recording Variation 1 data from the second measure (2|1|000). The length of the data can be from 1 to 256 measures. All measures must be of one of the following time signatures: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, or 5/4. • Variation 2 begins from the top of the measure directly following the last measure of Variation 1. In the chart, this is listed as 4|1|000; however, the actual timing depends on the length of Variation 1. • The following charts indicate the valid MIDI events for both the Initial Setup data and the Pattern data. Make sure to NOT enter any events marked with a dash (-), nor any events not listed here.

(Refer to the online Help file in the software for specific operation instructions.) I About the User Pattern Data As you create your own Patterns and use them with the DJX-II, keep in mind that these User Patterns differ from the built-in preset Patterns of the DJX-II in the following ways: • The Activator's Auto kit (00) does not apply to the User Patterns. Select from any of the other kits (01 - 51) to use the Activator with a User Pattern. • The actual number of taps needed to tap start a Pattern (Tip 79) depends on the time signature of the User pattern. For example, in the case of a Pattern created in 3/4 beet, tap the BPM/TAP button three times to start the Pattern. 73
