Just got a new unit and very excited about the potential, but have a couple of newbie questions.
I want to enter a sequence of chords manually using the step mode. Punch the TRACK button then 'x' (configurator function) & select one of the multi-voice poly modes. Now how do I add a second note in step mode? For the first note I set the scroll to a pitch and punch the 1st keypad to place the note. But hitting that pad again deletes that note. Is it only possible to add chords with a MIDI controller? I notice in the manual when the piano roll has chords the first icon on the list to the right shows 3 parallel lines instead of the default step of 3 distinct squares. Odd that changing the voice configuration wouldn't automatically change that icon.
Also noticed that the 'x' configurator doesn't activate when selecting the from last 8 exclusively MIDI tracks - can't do polyphony on these tracks? That seems strange.
Don't understand the 2nd icon on the right of the STEP screen- can't find it in the manual. Default value seems to be '1/2' until I change a note length, but it responds oddly - e.g. edit note 5 in a sequence of sixteenth notes, punch track button 4 to create a quarter note length (4 steps) If I hold-press the 5 keypad the icon reads 3' ??? Confused.
Many thanks for the help!
