Basics Of Using Riffs

7. Next, lets change the setup to make riff 1 play not only track 1, but tracks 1-4 of the original song.

Using this method, you could have riff 1 play all the instruments for one part of a song, such as a

verse section, and then use riff 2 to play all the instruments for another part of a song, such as a

chorus section. Use the Chan/Zone button (to the left of the display) to move to zone 1. The

currently selected zone number can be viewed in the top right corner of the display. Use one of the

more soft buttons at the bottom of the display to find the RIFF1 soft button, then press the RIFF1

soft button. This brings you to the RIFF1 page for zone 1. Use the cursor buttons to select the Src

Track field, then press the minus button (below the Alpha Wheel) to select ALL (see below.) This

setting makes zone 1’s riff (riff 1) play all of the tracks from the song 428 H-Fact Sng. Try pressing

pad 1 to play riff 1, and you will hear the entire song 428 H-Fact Sng play. Press pad 1 again to

stop the riff before continuing.

8. Lastly, lets make riff two play all tracks of the same song, but we will have it play the song from a

different point than riff 1. This is meant to demonstrate how you would set up riffs to play different

sections of a song, though the song 428 H-Fact Sng is only 4 bars long, so it is only useful as an

example in this setup. First, lets change the Stop time for riff 1 so that it doesn’t play the song

section that we will use for riff 2. On the RIFF1 page for zone 1, use the cursor buttons to select the

left most Stop field (this is the Stop bars field,) then press the minus button twice (below the Alpha

Wheel) to change this field to 3 (see below.) Now when you press and light pad 1, riff 1 will play all

tracks of the song 428 H-Fact Sng, but now it is only a loop of the first 2 bars.
