Pattern Mixing mode In this mode, you can set up and save mixing data for your patterns, and set various parameters for the tone generator parts - including the desired voice, as well as its level, pan, EQ, effect and other settings. How the Pattern Mixing mode affects the tone generator parts, and how it is affected by other elements, is made clear by the following diagram. Sequencer block Pattern Data Tone Generator block Playback of pattern data affects the Pattern Mixing settings. MIDI data from external devices affects the Pattern Mixing settings. Pattern Mixing Tone Generator Editing in the Pattern Mixing mode determines the Pattern Mixing settings. Pattern Mixing parameters are not actually part of the pattern data, but rather are settings for the tone generator, as it is played back by the pattern data. As such, the Pattern Mixing parameter settings are not recorded to the pattern tracks. Even though the modes are different, the actual Pattern Mixing operations and parameters are the same as those of the Song Mixing mode. See page 205. See "Basic Operation" on page 75.
