Using EZ Compose
Creating a pattern
EZ Compose lets you select a favorite pattern for
each group of sounds, and combine them to
create your new pattern.
EZ Compose creates patterns with a time signature of
4/4 or 3/4.
If the time signature of the currently selected pattern is
not one of these, it will be converted to 4/4 or 3/4.
1. Press EZ COMPOSE [PATTERN].
* If there is an edited pattern that has not been saved, the
message “Cancel edit?” will appear.
If you want to save the pattern, press [EXIT] and perform
the Write operation (p. 65). If you don’t want to save it,
press [ENTER].
The EZ Compose pattern setting screen
appears.

2. Move the cursor to the relevant item, then
use the VALUE dial to set the value.
* If you want to use the currently selected pattern, choose
“Current” as the TYPE.
* Choose “------------” as the TYPE for patterns that you
don’t want to use (i.e., that you want to remain silent).
Press [ ] to play the pattern with the
current settings.
3. If you want to save the pattern, proceed
to “Saving a pattern” (p. 65).
You can use EZ Compose in Pattern mode,
but not in Song mode (p. 75).
