Pattern mode
■ Creating Patterns — basic procedure
Patterns consist of the following three types of data: 
• MIDI sequence data (created in the Pattern Record mode, Pattern Edit mode, and Pattern Job mode)
• Setup data (created in the Pattern Play mode)
• Mixing data (created in the Pattern Mixing mode/Mixing Edit mode and stored in the Pattern Mixing Store mode)
After creating the data in these modes described above, store the Mixing settings in the Pattern Mixing Store mode to archive it as Pattern data 
and save the entire Pattern to the SmartMedia/USB storage device in the File mode. 
nNon-note MIDI events (such as Voice number, volume, pan, and effect send level) which are necessary at the start of a Pattern are not recorded as MIDI 
sequence data, but are stored instead as Mixing data.
Because Pattern data (MIDI sequence data, Setup data, and Mixing data) is recorded to DRAM (page 187), it will be lost when turning the power off. Make 
sure to save any Pattern data created via the Record, Edit, Job, and Mixing setting to the SmartMedia/USB storage device in the File mode before turning 
the power off. For details on saving Pattern data, see page 132. 
Pattern Play mode[PATTERN] → Pattern selection
[F1] PLAYRefer to page 56 in the Quick Guide section.
Trans (Transpose)Determines the key transpose setting for the Pattern, and can be adjusted in semitones.
Settings:-36 ~ +36
nIf Transpose is applied to a Drum Voice, the results may not be musically appropriate. To ensure proper playback of a Drum 
Voice, set the Note Shift parameter for the Drum Voice Part to an appropriate value ([PATTERN] → [MIXING] → [EDIT] → Part 
selection → [F4] TONE → [SF1] TUNE → NoteShift).
MEAS (Measure)Indicates the current measure number and beat for the current Pattern. During playback, this indication changes 
automatically according to the Pattern playback. You can input the desired measure number directly by using the 
Number Input window called up via the [INFORMATION] button.
[SF1] ARP1 (Arpeggio 1) - [SF5] 
ARP5 (Arpeggio 5)You can register the desired Arpeggio types to these buttons and call them up any time during your keyboard 
performance. 
[F2] GROOVE (Grid Groove)

[F3] TRACK
[SF1] CHANNEL
Same as in the Song Play mode. See page 221.
[SF2] OUT SW (Output Switch)Same as in the Song Play mode. See page 222.
[SF3] TR VCE (Track Voice)Determines whether the program change data contained in the phrase data is effective or not. For most purposes, 
this should be set to “off.” For example, if a phrase has embedded Voice changes (program change messages) but 
you don’t want the Voice to change in the middle of the phrase, set this to “off.” Tracks that are set to “off” here 
automatically play back with the Voice number assigned to the Part set in the Mixing mode.
nThe Phrase Voice embedded in the Phrase can be specified from the Voice display in the Pattern Record mode (page 243).
[F4] PATCHRefer to page 113 in the Quick Guide section.
From this display, you can assign a Preset phrase or a User phrase (recorded in the Pattern Record mode) to each track and create a Pattern that contains up to 
16 tracks.
nThe Patch function allows you to use only User phrases recorded to a track of the currently selected Pattern. If you wish to use User phrases recorded to tracks of other Patterns, 
use the Phrase Data Copy function, selected with [SF5] button. 
SectionShows the current edited section. For details about how to change sections, see page 57. 
MeasShows Measure : Beat for current playback location. 
[SF4] CLEARThis clears the Phrase assignment to the currently selected track and leaves the track empty.

[SF5] COPYThe User phrases that can be assigned with 
the Patch function are limited to the ones 
contained in the currently selected Pattern. 
This function lets you copy phrases in another 
Pattern to the selected one. Press the [SF5] 
button to call up the display shown at left. After 
setting the parameters as needed, press the 
[ENTER] button to copy the phrase data.
The copy operation overwrites any data 
previously existing in the destination 
phrase.
[F5] REMIX
This function gives you a variety of semi-random presets for dividing the MIDI sequence data and altering the note lengths, letting you create completely new 
variations of a Pattern. This function is particularly effective when used on a track which contains a sample voice created by using the Sampling feature with the 
SLICE+SEQ sample type or samples sliced using the Sample Slice Job.
Set the parameters below, then press the [ENTER] button to execute the Remix operation.  You can press the Play button at this point to hear the results of the 
Remix.  If you’re not satisfied with the results, try another Type/Variation and press [ENTER].  If you want to keep the changes, press [SF5] OK.  (Undo cannot be 
used with Remix.)  To return to the original display without altering the data, press the [SF4] CANCEL button.
nSince the remixed data is stored as a new phrase and assigned to the current track, the original phrase data remains as an unassigned phrase. 
TypeDetermines how the data in the selected track will be divided and rearranged. The division and rearrangement rules 
are different for each remix type. The type is also shown graphically in the display.
Settings:1~16
VariationDetermines how the original MIDI sequence data will be modified.

248Owner’s Manual
In this mode, you can set up 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. 
Pattern Mixing parameters are not actually part of the Pattern sequence data in each track, 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. 
Mixing operations and parameters are the same as those of the Song Mixing mode. See page 236.
Parameter settings made in the Pattern Mixing mode and Pattern Mixing Edit mode should be stored to internal memory (DRAM) as part of the Pattern data. 
In addition, make sure to save the entire Pattern data (including the Mixing settings) to the SmartMedia/USB storage device, since the data in DRAM is 
stored only temporarily (page 187).

Mixing Voice mode
■ Creating Mixing Voices — basic procedure
The Mixing Voice mode provides most of the same Normal Voice editing parameters as the Voice mode, with the main exception that these 
Voices are dedicated for use with the Songs and Patterns, and are stored specifically as Mixing Voices. 
The Mixing Voice Job mode lets you use the supplementary functions like Copy and Delete. After completing the Mixing Voice editing, you can 
store the edited Voice to a User Bank to internal memory (Flash ROM) or you can store it as a part of the current Song/Pattern data to internal 
memory (DRAM). When storing the edited Mixing Voice as a part of the current Song/Pattern data, make sure to save the data to a SmartMedia/
USB storage device in the File mode. 
The Mixing Voice Edit mode is divided into Common Edit, for setting parameters common to all four Elements, and Element Edit, for setting 
parameters of individual Elements. 
These parameters are for making global (or common) edits to all four Elements of the selected Normal Voice.
nThe Mixing Voice Edit parameters are basically the same as those in the Voice Edit mode.  However, some parameters having the same name as those in the 
Song Mixing/Pattern Mixing Part Edit mode are not available in the Mixing Voice Edit mode.
These parameters are for editing the individual Elements that make up a Normal Voice.

The Mixing Voice Job mode features two basic operations, Copy and Delete.  After setting parameters as required from the selected display, 
press the [ENTER] button to execute the Job. 
This function lets you store your edited Mixing Voice to User memory (Flash ROM or DRAM).
For details, refer to page 106 in the Quick Guide section.

[F2] RECALL
If you are editing a Mixing Voice and select a different Mixing Voice, Mixing program, Song or Pattern without storing your edited one, all the edits you’ve made will 
be erased. Edits are also erased if the current part to which the edited Mixing Voice is assigned receives a program change from an external MIDI instrument. 
If this happens, you can use Edit Recall to restore the Mixing Voice with your latest edits intact by pressing the [ENTER] button from the [F2] RECALL display. 
nSince a Recall Buffer for the Mixing Voice is prepared for each Part of the current Song or Pattern, you can specify the Part to which the Mixing Voice to be recalled is assigned 
before executing the Edit Recall. 
[F3] COPY
This Job lets you copy the Mixing Voice stored to a specified Part in one Song/Pattern to a Part in 
another Song/Pattern.
[F5] DELETE
This Job lets you delete a Mixing Voice assigned to a specified Song/Pattern’s Part.
