Playing back a cue list
Songs can be assigned to a cue list, and will playback 
in the specified order. You can also specify the number 
of times that each song will be repeated. Here’s how to 
play back the demo songs assigned to a cue list.
1. Access the P11: Cue List page.
Press the PAGE SELECT switch to access the Seq Page 
Select page. Press “P11 Cue List” in the display.
2. Press the SEQUENCER START/STOP switch.
You will hear the songs in the list in the assigned order. 
If you want to stop playback before you reach the end 
of the list, press the START/STOP switch once again.
Performing with RPPR
In Sequencer mode, the RPPR (Realtime Pattern Play/
Recording) function allows you to assign a preset 
pattern or user pattern (and a track to play it) to each 
key.
This way, you can play a pattern simply by pressing 
the key to which it is assigned. You can also record the 
resulting playback.
The demo songs you loaded contain data that uses the 
RPPR function. Here’s how you can use it.
1. Access the P0: Play/REC– Program T01–08 page, 
and select S001: Electronista.
For details, refer to steps 6 and 7 on the preceding 
page.
2. Make sure that the “RPPR” check box is checked.
If this is checked, RPPR will operate.
If this is unchecked, RPPR will not operate.
3. Press a key C#2 or above.
The pattern assigned to that key will begin playing. A 
pattern such as a drum pattern or bass phrase etc. can 
be assigned to each of the seventy-two keys C#2–C8 
(indicated in the illustration as Pattern Assignable). 
Keys that are not assigned will play normally.
In some cases, the pattern will continue playing even 
after you release the key. If so, you can stop playback 
by pressing that key once again, or by playing any key 
C2 or below (indicated in the illustration as Shutdown 
Keys).
This completes our quick start.
Of the M50’s wide range of functionality, this operation 
guide explains how to use some of the most typical 
operations. We highly recommend that you take the
