Creating an original rhythm pattern

This section explains how you can create your own original rhythm patterns. There are two ways of doing this: real-time input where you record your play on the front panel pads, and step input where play is stopped and you enter the sounds one by one.

Preparations

Before starting to record, you must select a rhythm pattern number for input, and set the quantize value (shortest unit for recording), number of measures and beats, drum kit/bass program number etc.

1. From the main screen, press the [PATTERN] key so

that the key lights up.

The rhythm section goes into rhythm pattern mode.

2. Press the [RHYTHM] key.

The [RHYTHM] key lights up, and creating and editing a rhythm pattern becomes possible.

3. Turn the dial to select an empty rhythm pattern.

The indication “EMPTY” appears on the display when an empty pattern is selected.
