1.3 IMPORTANT: HOW TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE SR-16
1.3A Entering Numbers
The SR-16 identifies Patterns and Songs, as well as many other parameters, with numbers.
You need to type in (enter) these numbers in a specific way (as described below).
1.3B The Cursor
When the SR-16 wants you to enter a number in the "Dialog" box, the display will show the
previously-entered number (or the default number), and the first digit will have a small
underline called the cursor. If the cursor is not present, the number is there for reference only.
You are expected to enter something only if the cursor is present.
1.3C Leading Zeroes
If a value to be edited is a two-digit number, you must enter a two-digit number. If the number
is a three-digit number, you must enter a three-digit number. If necessary, enter a leading 0
(i.e., a zero at the beginning of the number) to fill out the required number of digits. Example:
The beat length is a three-digit number. To enter a beat length of 16, enter 016.
1.3D Automatic Revert
This feature may confuse you at first, but save you from potential problems as you become
more familiar with the machine. If all the required digits of a number aren't entered within two
seconds, the display will revert back to the previous number, with the cursor under the first
digit of the previous number. This is handy because if you start to enter a new number, but
then change your mind halfway through, you don't have to key in (or remember) the original
number again—just wait two seconds, and the display will revert to the original setting.
1.3E The INC/DEC Buttons
The two small buttons with the up arrow and down arrow symbols (next to the number keys)
are called the INC/DEC buttons respectively.
Pressing the INC button once increases the value of the entire number indicated by the
cursor (not just a single digit) by one. Pressing the DEC button once decreases the value of
the entire number indicated by the cursor (not just a single digit) by one. Example: If the
display shows 00 and you want to enter 01, tap the INC button once.
