The Multi Pads
The Multi Pads
The PSR-8000 features 4 “MULTI PADs” that can be used to record and play
back short sequences of notes and chords. The multi pads can be used to add
phrases and sound effects as you play, they can be used to supplement the
AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT feature with extra phrases and fills, or when the
REPEAT mode is on they can function as an extra style track, providing auto-
matic arpeggios and other embellishments.
There are 60 MULTI PAD “banks”, each of which includes the four MULTI PAD
buttons. Banks 01 through 50 contain preset phrases, and banks 51 through 60
are “user” banks in which you can record your own phrases.
MULTI PAD Playback
Use the M.PAD BANK
[–]
and
[+]
buttons to select the desired bank, then press one of the MULTI PAD buttons —
[1]
[4]
— to play the corresponding phrase. The phrase will play back whether the accompaniment is playing or
not, but will always play at the currently set tempo. Unless the REPEAT mode is on for the selected pad (page 121),
playback will end automatically as soon as the end of the phrase is reached. A phrase can be stopped while it is playing
by pressing the MULTI PAD
[STOP]
button. A currently playing phrase can be retriggered by pressing the
corresponding pad button. It is also possible to play back several phrases at the same time.
If a MULTI PAD is played while AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT is playing and the CHORD MATCH function for

to match the accompaniment chords.
