Rhythm Program
Instead of pressing the Sequence button on the
display, you can press one of the sequence buttons in
the Rhythm section on the panel to select the
sequence number.
This selects the Sequence number, to which a
rhythm composition can be saved.
If you want to edit an existing rhythm composition,
refer to “Copying a Rhythm Sequence” on page 177.
If you want to program a Rhythm Sequence from
scratch, refer to “Programming a Sequence” below.
1 Press the [RHYTHM] button at the top
right of the display to call up the
RHYTHM Page.
2 Press the rhythm button corresponding
to the rhythm you want to enter to the
sequence. If you press User button [1]
or [2], you can select a rhythm of your
own creation (User rhythm).
The rhythm menu of the selected rhythm button is
displayed.
3 Select the desired rhythm from the
displayed rhythm menu.
4 Select a rhythm section (Main A – D, Fill
in A – D, Intro 1 – 3, Ending 1 – 3, or
Break) by pressing one of the rhythm
control buttons on the panel.
The selected rhythm and section appears at the top
of the display.
NOTE
• When entering an Intro section, you can confirm the
number of measures at the top of the display.
• When you press the ENDING [1] button while the Main
section is playing back, a fill in pattern will be called up
before the Ending 1 pattern. In the Rhythm Sequence
program, however, a fill in pattern is not called up when
Ending 1 is entered to the Sequence.
5 Press the [SET] button in the display.
One measure of the selected rhythm is entered and
its name is displayed as a box in the rhythm row on
the display. When the rhythm is entered, the cursor
(colored orange) will automatically move one step to
the right. A maximum of 140 measures can be
entered to a single sequence. When you select an
ending pattern and press the [SET] button, an entire
ending pattern (more than one measure) is entered.
You cannot enter a rhythm after an ending pattern.
6 Repeat steps 2 through 5 above to enter
the rhythm and create your own rhythm
composition.
Turning the power off before quitting or closing the
Rhythm Sequence Program erases any sequences you
have made. Before turning the power off, quit the
Rhythm Sequence Program (page 176).
You can play a sequence you are editing at any time to
audition the changes.
1 Move the cursor to the desired position
for playback.
Move the cursor by using the Data Control dial, or
the POSITION buttons on the display.
