ALESIS SR-16
Manual de Usuario

5.3 MANUAL SONG CREATION 5.3A Enter a Pattern 1. Select Song mode and the desired Song number. 2. Select Compose mode. The display will show STEP 01 and the contents of the step, which is currently E N D (if the first step says E N D , that indicates that the Song is empty since it contains no data. If the first step shows a PATTern number, then the Song is not empty). 3. Enter a two-digit Pattern number with the number buttons. If desired, choose between the A/B variations and Preset/User options. 4. If you want to enter another Pattern, press the INC button to move to the next step; or press the DEC button to return to a previous step and change its Pattern. 5.3B Add a Fill 1. With the SR-16 in Song and Compose modes, select the step where the Fill is to be added. 2. Press and hold the FILL button. 3. Enter the number of beats and sub-beats after the start of the current step in which the Fill is to start playing with the number buttons and INC/DEC buttons respectively. It is not necessary to press PLAY; the step will remember where the Fill is to occur. 4. As the Song plays the step where the Fill occurs, the display will show FILL when the Fill begins playing. 5.3C Remove a Fill While in Compose mode, there are two ways to remove a Fill from a Song: � When the Fill step appears, press the A button for an A Pattern or press the B button for a B Pattern and the Fill will be removed. � When the Fill step appears, press and hold the FILL button and press ERASE. 5.3D Insert a New Step Between Two Existing Song Steps 1. The SR-16 should be in Song and Compose modes. 2. Use the INC/DEC buttons to select the step number that the inserted step should occupy. Example: To insert a step after step 04, select step 05. 3. Press and hold COPY, and keep holding it down until step (6). The display says INSERT. 4. Enter the two-digit Pattern number to be inserted. 5. Press PLAY. The new step is inserted, and all subsequent steps are automatically renumbered to reflect the addition of the inserted step (e.g., what used to be step 05 is now step 06, what used to be step 06 is now step 07, etc.). 6. Release the INSERT and PLAY buttons.
