After playing the note that you wish to input, release

[SHIFT] and the last-sounded note will be selected.

Gate Time Ratio

Specifies the time from when the note is pressed until

it is released (the Gate Time), as a ratio relative to the

Step Time. Set a low value if you want notes to be cut

off sharply, or a higher value if you want notes to be

sustained. Normally you will select a value of approxi-

mately 80%.

To enter staccato notes select 50%, and to enter tenuto

notes select 100%.

Different Gate Time Ratio values are assigned to each

of the RHYTHM buttons [BD]Ð[OTHERS].

Press any button to select the desired gate time ratio

value.

The indicator of the button you pressed will light.

* Since the rhythm part is always input with a fixed gate

time, it is not necessary to set the gate time ratio value.

fig.10-47 (10-33)

The velocity and gate time ratio values assigned to

each button are merely the factory settings, and you

are free to modify these.
