the top right of the pad will be entered when PAD is pressed.  For
example, A will be entered if you press PAD1 once and B if you press

Name: field or other pages with the CURSOR DOWN
key, the entered name will be ignored and the name will
not change.

• Default name:

When you are recording a new sequence, the name set here will au-
tomatically be used.  When a name is actually used for a sequence,
the sequence number will be added after the name.  For example, if
the default name is set to “Sequence”, the name will be “Se-
quence01”  (01 is the sequence number).
The way to enter a name is the same as for Sequence name.

To open a Sequence window select the Sq: field and press OPEN WIN-
DOW.

The Delete Sequence window will open when you press DELETE[F2].

The selected sequence data will be erased if you press DO IT[F5] and
the sequence name will change to (Unused).
