Roland Piano 用户手册

The 

 function lets you assign 

patterns to the keyboard, and play a pattern by pressing a single note.

For example, a complex phrase that would be difficult to play live 
can be assigned to a note of the keyboard, and played with one 
finger at the appropriate moment.

Since up to eight patterns can be playing at once, you can create 
patterns for separate instruments such as drums, bass, and 
keyboard, and combine them to create a new song. This performance 
can also be recorded, allowing you to use it in a way similar to 
phrase sampling.

Before you use the RPS function, you must record the desired phrase 
in a pattern. For details on recording, refer to 

Only note messages should be recorded in a pattern. If a large 
amount of MIDI data is recorded in a pattern, using RPS to play 
back the pattern can cause notes to be delayed. MIDI messages 
other than note messages should be recorded in a phrase track.

You can assign a pattern to each note of the keyboard, and specify 
how the pattern will be played. These settings are made 
independently for each song, and will be saved when you save the 
song in MRC Pro song format.

The Song Edit screen appears.

If you select a song that is stored on disk, a message of “The 
Song “****” is not Internal Song. Load anyway for Song Edit?” 
will ask you for confirmation. If you want to erase the song from 
the internal memory and load the new song, press [7 (OK)]. If 
you decide not to erase the song from the internal memory, press 
[EXIT].

The Song Setup window appears.

The RPS Setup window appears.

fig.12-02_50

In this window you can set various parameters related to the 
RPS function.

The Key parameter, Pattern parameter, Playback Mode 
parameter, and Mute Group parameter are set for each key. 
Although the Fantom has a 76-note keyboard, you can also make 
settings for all keys in the range of C-1 to G9. Settings for the 
Trigger Quantize parameter and Velocity Sens parameter are for 
the entire song.

Specify the key to which the pattern will be assigned. You can also 
specify this by pressing a key on the keyboard.

Select the pattern number that will be assigned to the key. The name 
of the selected pattern will be displayed below the pattern number.

Select “OFF” for keys to which you do not want to assign a pattern. 
If you select “STOP,” that key will be a Stop Trigger key that stops 
the currently playing patterns.

 STOP, OFF, PTN001–PTN100

The state of settings is shown graphically in the display. The key 
being set is indicated by “▼,” keys to which a pattern is assigned 
are indicated by “❚”, and keys set to “STOP” are indicated by “✚”. 
Keys for which nothing is displayed are turned “OFF.”
