Chapter 11: User Programmable Functions 156

9. PRE-FILL special value - refers to the bar before a fill

10. FILL refers to the bar of a fill (not applicable to drums because there is a special row

for drum fills).

11. POST-FILL refers to the bar after a fill (same as the first bar after a part marker).

Drum Fill on Substyle (USUAL SETTING = Any)

This setting is only relevant on the Drum Fills line. It lets you specify if you

want the drum fill to be used on the “a” substyle, the “b” substyle, or either. The

default setting is Any.

Late Triplets (USUAL SETTING =0)

This is only relevant in drum patterns with timebase =12 (triplet feel). If you

want the 3rd triplet to be played late (as is usually done in slow jazz style), then

set a number from 0 - 11. Default is 0 (not late at all). A typical setting for a

slow triplet style is triplets late =5 (the units are 120/beat).

Now let’s make the ending drum pattern.

Endings are 2 bars long. In the case of the drums, this is done by 2 consecutive

1 bar patterns on the ending row. Move to the Endings row. Input a 1 bar

pattern in the first column and then another 1 bar pattern in the 2nd. These 2

patterns are the ending patterns so you should make the 2nd pattern an ending

drum pattern typically with a crash cymbal on beat 3 for example.

Making Bass Patterns

Bass patterns are recorded live from a MIDI keyboard. If you can't play in real

time, or if you don't have a MIDI keyboard you'll have to import these

instruments from other styles (as we will be doing with the strings).

The Bass Screen

If you're making a simple bass pattern you'll only need to record pattern(s) on

the A 8 beat row (the top row). These patterns will be chosen for every chord,

regardless of the length. But if you want the style to play different patterns

when the song is encountering chords that last 1, 2, 3, or 4 notes, you should

record separate patterns on these rows.

Recording a Bass Pattern

Move to the top row of the bass area, in column 1. Press the [REC] button.

This will begin the recording of the bass pattern. You will hear a 2 bar lead-in

and then you record a 2 bar bass pattern. For your bass pattern, you will play a

1 2 ... 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 ... 266 267
