• Under “Defaults” is a list of midi numbers. The order of instruments in this list
determines the order of instruments in the Pattern editor .
• After making changes to the “Instrument” and “Defaults” sections, select “Save as”
from the file menu. Enter Drums.ahi as the file name . Overwrite the current
Drums.ahi file.
NB: If you get an error when trying to run the pattern editor after this operation,
DON’T PANIC! Check your work carefully, and make sure you have inserted a
<Tab> field after each number in the “Instrument” section (Even if you are leaving
the name field empty you should still insert a <Tab> and a few blank spaces).
12. Midi Mapping (Advanced users)
This function is used to overcome midi import problems, when an instrument in the midi file
is not available in the Pattern Editor. In this case you can "map" the problem note to a
different note which is available in the Pattern Editor. (Midi mapping also works for
imported PS02 Patterns)
• Open the drums.ahi file in the Pattern Editor. Under " Defaults" chose a note number
(XX) to act as the destination, then after it type:
=YY ( where YY is the number of the note in the midi file that needs to be moved).
• Save the new Drums.ahi file, then run the Pattern Editor and import the midi file
again. All the notes formerly of midi number YY have now been moved to XX in the
Pattern Editor.
• Close the Pattern editor and undo the midimap at the end of the session.
13. The Bass line
The PS02 bass machine has a range from E0 (the lowest note of a bass guitar) to B5 ( 5
½ octaves). The Pattern Editor does allow the user to enter notes from C0 to D#0 as
well, but these will be transposed up an octave by the PS02, so are best avoided. When
you play back the bass line on the PS02, the chord input display should be set to C NON
throughout . This will ensure playback in the same key.
To transpose the bass line simply alter the Chord Input Display. This may result in some
notes jumping up or down an octave however which may not be the effect you want.
As long as your original bass line is in a major key - with no accidentals - you may also be
able to change the “chord type” on the PS02, which will allow you even more flexibility in
using the pattern.
