Stupid noob RPS Question
11 Oct 2008, 04:27Ok I have started playing around with the RPS so I can create some one man band type accompaniments Now I get how to record and save a pattern but 2 things confuse poor old me and even after rtfm I am stumped
1) I assign the patterns I have created to the pads but how do I switch patches that the keys are playing IE in the intro I play the lead with a guitar and the RPS taking care of the ep I then start a new pattern to do the main section and I want the RPS to take care of the guitar and to play the EP lead myself so how do I tell the keyboard and RPS that I want to change the patches that I am playing
2) Can I set up the RPS to play pad one once then if I hit pad 2 to come in about halfway through the last 1st pad measure how do I get pad 2 to start at the next 1st beat of the next bar not to overlap pad 1 and knock all my timing out by 2 beats and make an awful sound (Oh thats more confusing to type than achieve)
3) Last but not least do I save the RPS patterns and keyboard setup as a sequencer pattern
Many thanks
