In addition to using the built-in Rhythm Patterns, you are free to
create your own. After creating an original Rhythm Pattern, you can
store it in the internal user memory.
Broadly speaking, there are two ways to create a Rhythm Pattern.
In this method, you use the keyboard and pads to step-record your
Rhythm Pattern. Each time you input a note, you will advance to the
next step. This method is convenient when you want to create a
Rhythm Pattern from scratch using a Pattern that contains no data.

If you want to create “from scratch,” you’ll need to initialize the
Pattern. In the RHYTHM PATTERN EDIT screen, hold down
[SHIFT] and press [F4 (INIT)]. A message will ask whether you
want to initialize; press [F6 (EXEC)] to execute initialization.

1.

Hold down [SHIFT] and press [RHYTHM].

2.

Press [F2 (RHYTHM)].

3.

Press [F5 (EDIT)].

The RHYTHM PATTERN EDIT screen appears.

The Rhythm Setup window appears.

5.

Press to move the cursor to “End Step.”

6.

Use the VALUE dial or [INC] [DEC] to specify the number of
steps for the Rhythm Pattern.

7.

Press to move the cursor to “Input Velocity.”

8.

Use the VALUE dial or [INC] [DEC] to specify the velocity
setting for the data you will input.
The data will be input with the specified velocity.

9.

Press [F6 (CLOSE)] to close the Rhythm Setup window.

10.

Press [F6 (STP REC)] to add a check mark (

).

Now you’re ready to step-record.
To move to the desired input location, press [CURSOR].
To input notes, play the keyboard or pads.
To input a tie, press [F2 (TIE)].
To input a rest, press [F3 (REST)].
To erase the note, hold down [SHIFT] and press [F6 (CLR
NOTE)].
To erase all notes at the current step, hold down [SHIFT] and
press [F5 (CLR STEP)].
You can press [F4 (PREVU)] to audition the pattern you’ve
input.

A maximum of sixteen note numbers (pitches) can be used in a
single pattern.

When you have finished, press [F5 (EXIT)].
