This activates the pattern mode. The [PATTERN] key LED lights up. During manual play, you use the [DRUM A] key, [DRUM B] key, and [BASS] key to select the desired drum kit or bass program. (The LED of the selected key lights up.) Pressing the [DRUM A] or [DRUM B] selects drum kit A or B.
• Keeping a [VALUE +/-] key depressed changes numbers continuously. • To change numbers quickly, hold one of the [VALUE +/-] keys depressed and press the other key. The numbers will change continuously. HINT HINT 17 Playing the Pads (Manual Play) The current kit/program number is shown on the display.
The RT-123 switches to pattern mode and the number of the currently selected pattern is shown on the display. A01 - A99, B01 - B99, C01 - C99 indicates a preset pattern, and U01 - U99 a user pattern. If an empty user pattern was selected, the display shows "E" (Empty).
19 Playing the Patterns (Pattern Mode) The display shows the current tempo for about 2 seconds. While a pattern is paused or playing, the [TEMPO] key can be tapped twice to input a quarter note interval. When creating a pattern, this makes it easy to set the desired tempo.
When a pattern that contains nothing is selected, the display shows only "E". The display shows the current quantize setting. Quantization refers to the degree of detail with which notes are recorded.
• Keeping a [VALUE +/-] key depressed changes numbers continuously. • To change numbers quickly, hold one of the [VALUE +/-] keys depressed and press the other key. The numbers will change continuously. • The kit/program for a track can be changed also after the pattern was recorded.
While the key is held down, the sound from that pad is erased from the pattern. To erase the entire track, push the [DRUM A], [DRUM B], or [BASS] key while holding the [DELETE/ERASE] key down. While both keys are held down, all sounds in that track are erased.
By holding the [REPEAT/STEP] key down while hitting a pad, a percussion sound can be recorded. 23 Pattern Recording (Real-Time Recording) REPEAT/STEP PAD STEP 10 Tap the pads while holding the [REPEAT/STEP] key down. • If a MIDI clock signal is being received, real-time recording is not possible.
The bass track is selected for recording. To record a bass track, you must first assign the pitches from the bass pattern to the pads. Pressing the [FUNCTION] key followed by pad 1 (BASS KEY) enables pitch setting for each pad. The [FUNCTION] key LED lights up and the display shows the pitch name assigned to pad 1.
25 Pattern Recording (Real-Time Recording) While the pad is being pressed, the assigned pitch name (E1 - A4) is shown on the display. The illustration below shows an example for assigning an E minor and E major scale to the pads. There are many possibilities for assigning pitch names.
As opposed to drum track recording, the bass track records for the length of which you press a pad. For example, to record the following sequence, hold the pad to which A2 has been assigned and the pad to which E2 has been assigned down for the length of a quarter note each.
27 Pattern Recording (Real-Time Recording) When the [REC] key is pressed during real-time recording, the [REC] key LED starts to flash and pattern recording is suspended. In this condition, tapping the pads will produce sound, but it is not recorded. This is useful to check phrasing and sound before actually recording.
Step recording allows you to enter and record each sound separately, step by step, while the RT-123 is in the stop condition. Even without mastering how to play the pads in real time, you can easily create complex drum and bass patterns.
29 Pattern Recording (Step Recording) This section describes how to record drum tracks A/B using step recording. Step recording of a drum track STEP 1 In pattern mode, select an empty user pattern. When wishing to use a pattern where a track has already been recorded, the pattern must be erased first.
The [REC] key LED and [PLAY] key LED light up, indicating that the RT-123 is ready for recording. The [REC] key LED goes out, and step recording ends. For example, tapping the [KICK] pad will enter a bass drum note (the [KICK] pad LED flashes briefly).
31 Pattern Recording (Step Recording) The bass track is selected. The selection method is the same as for real-time recording ( → p. 24). For details on the quantize value, please refer to page 28. The [REC] key LED and [PLAY] key LED light up, indicating that the RT-123 is ready for recording.
that pad is entered, and the position proceeds to the next step. • Enter the minimum unit rest: Briefly tap the [REPEAT/STEP] key and release it. A rest of the selected minimum duration is entered, and the position proceeds to the next step.
33 Pattern Copy/Erase The [INSERT/COPY] key LED flashes and the current pattern is selected as the copy source. Only user patterns can be selected as copy target. The copy source can be a user pattern or preset pattern. However, an empty user pattern (display shows "E") cannot be selected as copy source.
34 Pattern Copy/Erase The [DELETE/ERASE] LED flashes and the indication "dEL" and the pattern number alternately are shown on the display. When erasing is completed, the unit returns to the pattern mode with the empty user pattern being selected.
35 Creating Songs (Song Mode) Cr eating Songs (Song Mode) This section describes how to line up user patterns in a desired order to create the backing for an entire song. This mode of operation is called the song mode. A song is a sequence of user patterns (preset patterns cannot be used).
The RT-123 is switched to song mode. The display shows the currently selected song number. In song mode, the [VALUE +/-] keys serve to select a song. If an empty song was selected, the right side of the display shows "E". The [REC] key LED lights up, indicating that the RT-123 is ready for song recording.
The lower two digits of the display show the second step, and the upper two digits show "EE" which indicates the end of the song. In this condition, you can select the pattern for the second step. If you wish to return to the previous step, hold down the [REPEAT/STEP] key and press the [VALUE -] key.
The [PLAY] key LED lights up and the song is played back. The [TEMPO] key LED flashes according to the tempo of the song. During playback, the upper two digits of the display show the current step number, and the lower two digits show the song number.
The [REC] key LED lights up, and song editing becomes possible. The lower two digits of the display show the step number and the upper two digits show the pattern number.
The [DELETE/ERASE] key LED flashes, and the song number and the indication "dEL" appear alternately on the display. 40 Creating Songs (Song Mode) When you wish to delete a song, for example to make room for new recordings, proceed as follows.
41 Using Pads to Play Patterns (Groove Play) Using Pads to Play Patter ns (Groove Play) This section describes the groove play mode. In this mode, the 13 pads are used to play patterns assigned to them. This allows quick switching between patterns during a performance.
Up to 4 patterns can be played simultaneously, using the same tempo. Slightly shifting the timing when you hit the pads is also possible. In groove play mode, the [PLAY] / [STOP/EXIT] keys can be used to start or stop the currently selected song. Also while a song is playing, up to four patterns assigned to pads can be played.
To select items, the pads and other keys are used. The items assigned to pads 1 - 13 and the [PATTERN] Key is listed below. (The items are indicated on the pads at the bottom right.) • Pad 1 (BASS KEY): Shifts the bass program pitch in semitones. • Pad 2 (MIX): Sets the pattern/track level.
44 FUNCTION Key Settings The display shows the setting of the selected item. The setting changed at step 3 is now determined, and the RT-123 puts the function settings to an end. The beat (TIME SIG) and measure (BAR LENGTH) setting can be returned to the original setting by pressing the [EXIT] key instead of the [FUNCTION] key in step 4.
45 FUNCTION Key Settings The setting range of the various items controlled with the [FUNCTION] key is described below. Setting Range Pad 1 pitch: A1 - A2 Pad 2 - 13 pitch: E1 - A4 Sets the pitch of the tones assigned to the pads for a bass program in semitones.
46 FUNCTION Key Settings Setting Range: 2, 3, 4 Set the beat for the pattern to 2 (2/4 beat), 3 (3/4 beat), or 4 (4/4 beat). Changing the beat of an already recorded pattern is also possible, but the recorded sound will change as follows. Proceed with care, especially when making the beat shorter.
47 FUNCTION Key Settings Setting Range: 0 - 99 (Default value: 70) The volume level of the metronome click sound heard during real-time recording can be adjusted with the [VALUE +/-] keys. This setting applies to all patterns. Setting Range: 1 - 99 Sets the length of the pattern in the range from 1 - 99 measures.
48 FUNCTION Key Settings between open hi-hat and closed hi-hat with your foot, push the FS01 and press pad 5 (CLOSED HAT). Then release the FS01 and press pad 7 (OPEN HAT). The sound of the first pad will be heard as soon as the FS01 is pushed, also when the pad itself is not pressed.
49 FUNCTION Key Settings Setting Range: 50 - 75 (Default value: 50) This setting controls the swing amount (rhythm flourish). Higher values result in more pronounced swing. This item influences only the playback timing of the pattern. It does not affect the recorded data of the pattern.
Setting Range: oFF, 1 – 16 (Default values, drum track A: 10, drum track B: oFF, bass track: 9) This item sets the MIDI channel for each track. Available settings for drum tracks are oFF (not received) and 1 - 16. Available settings for the bass track are oFF (not received), 1 - 16, and Auto.
