Starting Realtime 
Recording Within a Song
You can start Realtime Recording from a point 
other than the beginning of the song.
This is convenient when you want to insert 
patterns in lengthy songs.
1. With the performance stopped, press [
[
] to specify the measure where 
recording is to begin.
* When recording two-measure patterns, you 
cannot specify the second measure of each 
pattern.

2. Hold down [REC] and press [START].
Recording begins from the currently selected 
measure.
The tempo indicator flashes on each beat.
3. When you reach the measure before the one 
you want to substitute, select the next 
pattern to be recorded.
Turn the TEMPO/VALUE dial to select the 
pattern number.
* You can also select the pattern by inputting the 
pattern number with the numeric keys and 
pressing [
].
4. When the replacement pattern is recorded, 
press [STOP/CONT] to end recording.
* If no pattern number is entered as the 
replacement pattern, then the pattern already 
recorded is played.
Adding Patterns at the 
End of a Song
You can start Realtime Recording at the end of a 
recorded song to add more patterns to the song.
1. With the performance stopped, hold down 
[SHIFT] and press [
].
This lets you jump to the measure following 
the last measure of the song.
2. Select a pattern to add.
Turn the TEMPO/VALUE dial to select the 
pattern number.
* You can also select the pattern by inputting the 
pattern number with the numeric keys and 
pressing [
].
3. Hold down [REC] and press [START].
Recording begins from the measure number 
following the last measure of the song, while 
the additional pattern you selected starts to 
play.
The tempo indicator flashes on each beat.
* The same pattern continues to be recorded until 
the next pattern is selected.
4. Select the next pattern to be recorded.
5. Repeat Step 4 as needed to record 
additional patterns.
* When Pattern 250 is reached, the message “PTN
