Using Pads
Use the procedure below to synchronize Auto
Accompaniment and pad playback start timing
automatically. Phrase and/or sample playback is
performed simultaneously with the start of Auto
Accompaniment, which enables richer sound and more
powerful impact that is not possible with normal Auto
Accompaniment.
1.
While holding down the dn SYNCHRO
START button, tap the pad you want to
synchronize with.
This will cause the pad and the dn SYNCHRO START
button lamp to start to flash. (MZ-X500 only: Pad will
flash.)
2.
Starting Auto Accompaniment will also start
playback of the synchronized pad at the
same time.
Enable the pad’s Hold Function if the pad has a long
sample, phrase, or chord progression assigned to it.
You can repeat step 1 as many times as required to
synchronize with multiple pads, if you want.
You can use the procedures in this section to record a
sampled sound, phrase, or chord progression to each
pad.
