■TURNING THE CHASE FUNCTION ON AND OFF - The Chase function
determines which drum kit will play a pattern. When the Chase function is
on, the drum kit used to record the pattern will automatically be selected
for the pattern playback. When the Chase function is off, the currently
selected drum kit will be used for playback of all patterns. The Chase
setting, which is set to “ON” when the RY9 is shipped, affects the entire
system. Hold [MODE] and press [PAGE+] once or more to access the Chase
function. The word “CHASE” will appear in the lower left area of the LCD.
Press [+1] to turn the Chase function on. When Chase is turned on, the
word “CHASE” will appear in the upper right area of the LCD. Press [-1] to
turn the Chase function off.
13. EXTERNAL IN MODE
The RY9 features a special [EXT IN] input jack that lets you connect a guitar
directly to the RY9 and play along with the patterns and songs, use the RY9 as
a guitar tuner, or use the RY9 as a guitar synthesizer by “triggering” any of the
50 AWM normal voices (including acoustic piano, strings, brass, synth pad
sounds, etc.), and more. (For details about connecting a guitar, see page 16.)
So the amount of music that can come from the RY9 at one time is the drums,
bass and two chord parts from the patterns/songs, plus a guitar signal and
the synthesized External In voice.
In External In Mode you can turn the Mix function on and off, specify the
External In voice and guitar synthesizer status, activate the guitar tuner, assign
the trigger sensitivity level for the External In voice, and turn the remote Start
function on and off.
