Creating a new Style

I

A Style you’ve recorded can be saved as a User Style.

The following content is saved.

• Recording data for each Division

• Style MFX settings (MFX Type, MFX Chorus/Reverb Send, 

MFX Sw)

• STYLE MAKEUP settings

• One Touch settings (you can select whether these will be 

saved)

The STYLE NAME screen will appear.

Enter a Style name of up to 16 characters.
The following characters are available.
A–Z a–z 0–9 ! # $ % & ‘ ( ) - @ ^ ` { } _

From a naming screen you can press [MENU] and select 
“1. Undo” to return the name to what it was before you 
changed it. 
From [MENU] you can select “2. To Upper” or press [

] to 

change the character at the cursor to uppercase. 

From [MENU] you can select “3. To Lower” or press [

] to 

change the character at the cursor to lowercase. 

From [MENU] you can select “4. Delete All” to clear all the 
characters you were inputting.

The relation between the length of the note value and the 
gate time is shown below. Since the Prelude’s song 
recorder uses a TPQN (Ticks Per Quarter Note; i.e., 
resolution) of 120, a quarter note gate time is 120 ticks.

The gate time that is recorded in step recording will be 
the original gate time value multiplied by the value of the 
Gate Time parameter. For example, if the Gate Time 
parameter is set to “80%,” inputting a quarter note will 
mean that the gate time is 120 x 0.8= 96.
