Select a project to play

1 . Press the PROJECTS button to enter the project mode.
2 . Select a project using the 64 pads.
3 . Press the
(PLAY) button to start playing the selected
sequence data. While the sequence is playing, the 64
pads display the entire sequence, and the playing part
lights up white.

Synchronization of tempo with external devices

The SQ-64 can synchronize tempo with external devices by using the
SYNC IN jack, MIDI IN, and USB MIDI IN. The master/slave settings
for synchronization can be configured in the global edit mode.

Edit of sequence data

Sequences are edited in gate mode, pitch mode, and modulation
mode. In those modes, you can select steps to be edited from the
pads and change each parameter. Each track includes up to 64
steps. When you want to edit the 17th and subsequent steps, use
the BAR button 1-4 to go to further pages.
Note Pressing the Track button A-D displays all the 64 steps of the
tracks on the pads. To restore the displays of all tracks, press
the same track button again.

Basic edit operations

From the 64 pads, press a step you want to edit to turn the step
on/off. Turn the PARAM1 to PARAM4 knobs to indicate the
parameter names and values on the display.
Depending on the mode, you can edit different parameters by
turning PARAM1 to PARAM4 while holding down the 64 pads or
the SHIFT button. See the table for each mode for details.

TEMPO and SWING knobs

The TEMPO and SWING knobs enable you to configure the tempo
and swing settings of the entire project when none of the Track
button A-D are selected. When any one of Track button A-D are
selected, each TEMPO knob functions as the clock divider and the
SWING knob can set the independent swing value for each track.
TIP You can roughly adjust the tempo and swing values by rotating
the TEMPO and SWING knobs while holding down the SHIFT
button.
Note While an external device works as a slave, the TEMPO knob is
used as the clock divider for the clock of the external device.
