The rhythm programming buttons show different results depending upon the SPLIT mode and whether or not link mode is enabled:

In whole mode with link mode disabled, the rhythm shown is the upper patch’s 16 step rhythm sequence.

In whole mode with link mode enabled, the display alternates between the upper rhythm (beats 1-16) and the lower rhythm (17-32)

In SPLITS mode with link mode disabled, the rhythm shown for the upper or lower SPLIT is dependent on the LOWER and UPPER buttons’ state. Obviously, when LOWER is lit, the lower SPLIT’S 16 step rhythm is shown, and when UPPER is lit, the UPPER SPLIT’S 16 step rhythm is shown.

In SPLIT mode with link mode enabled, the display alternates between the upper rhythm (beats 1- 16) and lower rhythm (17-32). The 32 step rhythm is applied to both SPLITS.

If the clock multiplier/divider is set to X1.5, /1.5, or /3, the rhythm is shortened to 12 steps, or 24 steps in link mode to make the rhythm fall on even measure intervals.
