Pattern Sequencer

Recording a Pattern

What is played on the pads or on an external MIDI

keyboard can be recorded (Realtime recording).

Your performance will be recorded exactly as you play it,

including hi-hat control pedal movements and Positional

Sensing.

* Please keep in mind that even though there are 100

user patterns, the amount of memory available will

be determined by how much data is recorded into

TD-30.

MEMO

• Storing performance data that describes every

instance where the Hi-Hat Control Pedal is used,

and that includes strike position detection rapidly

consumes the User memory.

• You can check the state of memory usage. For more

information, refer to “Viewing the Remaining Memory

and the Program Version (INFO)” (p. 125).

(1) Select the pattern to record

1. Access the PATTERN screen (p. 90).

2. Use the [–] [+] buttons or the dial to select a

pattern.

(2) Specify the time signature, number

of measure, and tempo

As described in “Specifying the Number of Measures,

Time Signature, and Tempo (SETUP)” (p. 97), specify the

time signature, number of measures, and tempo of the

pattern that you’re going to record.

MEMO

• If “REC Mode” (p. 100) is set to “Replace,” it is not

necessary to specify the “Pattern Length.” Recording

will continue until you press the [STOP] button, and

the number of measures recorded will automatically

become the “Pattern Length” setting.

• You can have a count sound (click) inserted before

recording begins by setting “Count In Rec.” For more

information, refer to “Making Click Settings (CLICK)”

(p. 82).

(3) Set the recording method

1. In the PATTERN screen (p. 91), press the [F5]

(

REC) button.

The [PLAY] button will light, and the PATTERN REC

STANDBY screen will appear.

The TD-30 will enter record-standby mode, and the click

will begin sounding.

MEMO

• If all the patterns have been used, pressing the

[F5] (NEW) button will have no eect. Delete an

unneeded pattern (p. 104) before you record.

• If you press the [F5] (NEW

REC) button while a

preset pattern is selected, the TD-30 will enter

record-standby mode with the lowest-numbered

empty pattern.

2. Use the cursor [ ] [ ] buttons to select the

parameter.

3. Use the [–] [+] buttons or the dial to make

settings.

Parameter Value Explanation

Tempo 20–260 Tempo

Quantize

8th note–64th

note, OFF

“Quantize” is a function

that corrects timing

inaccuracies while you

record. Set the note

value before you begin

recording and everything

you play will be quantized

automatically.

The value should be

set to the shortest note

appearing in the phrase.

When set to “OFF,” the

pattern is recorded exactly

as played.

* When using Tap

Playback to play back

a pattern you have

created, rst make sure

that this is not set to

“OFF,” then quantize. If

set to “OFF,” then Tap

Playback (p. 78) cannot

be executed correctly.
