This is actually a trick that you can fool Pa4X OS v.2 and use a variation/fill/ending/intro in any mode (except guitar mode)
and only advanced PaSeries users must try it ...
This procedure is mostly useful for style developers in case that an extra percussion loop or an extra DK is needed in one
variation/fill where there is no available Perc or Dr style track.

So , I will describe the workflow of an example that an already existing Acc 5 track of a Style with midi events , will be
altered in variation 2 as Perc/Dr mode track :
- While in Style Play/recording /menu / Style Tracks Controls/Type Trg/Tns , click on ACC arrow and select Perc or Dr.
- Press EXIT , set element :Var 2 (CV1-6) , click on ACC5 , change assignment Trk:Acc5 sound with the time sliced loop
user SOUND or DK you need.
- Record your Perc/Dr. or copy an existing track from another style using MENU/Style Edit/Style Copy for instance V1-CV1
to V2/CV2 , from Track : Drum/Perc/any ACC to Track : Acc5.
- Check the result using Element Trk Controls/Var2 and if all are OK
EXIT (while in Var2) go back to menu / Style Tracks Controls/Type Trg/Tns , click on Perc or Dr arrow and set it back to Acc.
- Press EXIT , set element :Var 2 (CV1-6) , click on Acc5 and set :
NTT type : fixed
NTT table : No Transpose
key : C
chord :major
- Be sure that Menu/Element Trk Controls/range/ACC5 is set from A0 to C8.
- Check that all other Style variations/CV with melodic instruments are set as NTT Type parallel and not as "No Transpose" , review your
effect send and write your style.
Note that you can anytime edit back Style and Acc5 melodic instruments.

A tutorial example of a brief style that in Var1 uses Acc5 as Dr. and in Var 2 , uses Acc for a harmonica can be downloaded from :

Hope this helps

Hallo Anthony,
thank you for publishing (with detailed description) this powerful way to record percussion-loops / drum-kits into Acc-tracks and to play as melody voices over chord variations, producing effects of additional style-elements. I mainly prefer chordvariations No3 or No3/5 for that additionals.

The trick of taking an Acc-track with type Perc/DK and resetting it to ACC before saving the style will work with all Pa models (not just with the Pa4x).

PS: there are some more tricks to do with Pa-Keyboards, like splitting manual of keyboard with keyranges. so for example one can get more than one voice or also can use ensemble-voice-effects on the lower-manual without to use manual-split.
A large potential also will be found in the parameters Mono / Poly / MonoL / MonoR to create voices for individual taste/usage (without using built-in ensemble-feature).

I never specified of what CV will be used for that , it's your exclussive option , this that matters is how to do the main
trick that will work in any Var/CV , as concerned to the rest tricks , I'm aware since the birth of Pa2X and most of
them can't even been explained from here ... in my SET development I always push App to its OS limits ! Wink
