HELP! How you change from synth to drum machine, or reverse?

[kobenauta]

Hi everyone, hows going?

Ive been a roland mc 707 since a few months now, its an easy machine to control in my opinion, nice sounding gear, buts i still have a few questions about how it works, but im today here to ask you guys one thing:

Every time i turn on the machine i get the first channels with predeterminated drum machine and the next is a synth. QUESTION: ¿HOW CAN I REPLACE THE FIRST FOR EXAMPLE? FOR A SYNTH?, imagine that i wanna have all synth, 8 synths running with no drum machines, and later i wanna put one drum machine, theres an option for that? for change what i want and replace ir later? you can select at the first time, but i cant find the turning back button.

i mean, its a super basic thing i guess but i couldnt find that option.

Thanks for reading!!! :-)

Hi,

You just press up on the cursor until the whole column is selected and choose delete. This will allow you to pick an new mode.

It's all in the manual too.

Thanks for replying. What cursor you mean??

I want this to come across as politely as possible, because I mean no offense: please read your manual.

While Roland often does not have in-depth information that we would all appreciate in their manuals, this kind of very basic question is certainly covered.

Good luck!

Well, so much for trying to be polite.

The answer to your question is on page 20 of the Reference Manual. A section titled "Changing a Track to a Different Type". Instructions are clearly given in 6 easy steps.

Perhaps you need to take a breath and settle down?
There is ZERO reason for cursing me out on a public forum, you just come across as a troll (who seems to know enough English to be able to insult people.)

Good luck with your music making.

If anyone is behaving badly, it is you. Please consider that you are the only one calling names and using foul language.

This is not acceptable. All discussions must be done in a respectful way and your message above clearly is not.

There is only one action appropriate here and that is to ban you from the forums. I suggest you look in Youtube for an answer to your original query.
