Chain Edit Page [CHAIN]"IniChain" Step 1 1 2 Type Num=U1 kit Initkit 3 4 1 Chain Name Specify a chain name of up to 8 characters. Use the leftmost Data Control knob to move the cursor (input point), and use the second-to-left knob to choose a character. Repeat this operation to input up to 8 characters for the chain name. Available characters are the same as those for the drum kit name. See page 41 for more information. 2 Step Choose a step number to assign a drum kit or song. You can assign up to 32 steps for each chain. ❏Settings: 1 - 32 3 Type Specify what you assign to the step; song or drum kit. If the step is the final step in the chain, you can explicitly complete the chain by assigning "END" (to avoid proceeding to an unused step in live performance or so on). ❏Settings: song, kit (drum kit), END (assigned to a final step of the chain) 4 Song/Drum Kit Number and Name If you have chosen "song" for the Type parameter, specify a song here. If you have chosen "kit" for the Type parameter, specify a drum kit here. The top row shows the song or drum kit number, and the bottom row shows the associated song or drum kit name for that number. ❏Settings: Song: P1 - P31, Q1 - Q67, R1 - R66, U1 - U32 Drum kit: P1 - P90, U1 - U40, C1 - C99 Creating or Editing a Chain 1. When creating a new chain, use the Data Control knob corresponding to the Step parameter and choose the first step. When editing an existing chain, choose the step number you want to edit. 2. Use the Data Control knob corresponding to the Type parameter and specify either "song" or "kit" depending on which you want to set for that step (song or drum kit). 3. Use the Data Control knob corresponding to "Num=" and choose the song or drum kit you want to assign to that step. 4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 above and specify as many steps as you want for the current chain. n You can program steps assigned to drum kits, as well as to songs in the same chain. 5. When you complete the chain at a specific step, assign "END" to that step using the Data Control knob corresponding to the Type parameter. The current chain will be completed at that step. n The chain will stop at the step assigned with "END" while switching steps in Chain Play mode. The "END" value is especially useful when you switch steps using a drum pad or a footswitch, since it will help avoiding inadvertently switching to an unused step (song or drum kit).

drum kit number, and the bottom row shows the
associated song or drum kit name for that
number.

Creating or Editing a Chain
1.
When creating a new chain, use the Data
Control knob corresponding to the Step
parameter and choose the first step.
When editing an existing chain, choose the
step number you want to edit.
2.
Use the Data Control knob corresponding to
the Type parameter and specify either “song”
or “kit” depending on which you want to set
for that step (song or drum kit).
3.
Use the Data Control knob corresponding to
“Num=” and choose the song or drum kit you
want to assign to that step.
4.
Repeat steps 1 to 3 above and specify as many
steps as you want for the current chain.
n
You can program steps assigned to drum kits, as
well as to songs in the same chain.
5.
When you complete the chain at a specific
step, assign “END” to that step using the Data
Control knob corresponding to the Type
parameter. The current chain will be
completed at that step.
n
The chain will stop at the step assigned with
“END” while switching steps in Chain Play mode.
The “END” value is especially useful when you
switch steps using a drum pad or a footswitch,
since it will help avoiding inadvertently switching
to an unused step (song or drum kit).
