Using bass
Selecting bass sounds
Now that we can hear the bass, let’s select a bass sound to
work with.
1.
Make sure that PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM
[ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] is extinguished (you’re
in Pattern mode).
If this button’s indicator is lit (which means you’re in
Arrangement mode), press PROGRAMMABLE
RHYTHM [ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] to turn it off.
2.
Press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM [EDIT].
The Pattern Selection screen will appear.

3.
Press [F1] (SETUP).
The dialog for pattern setup will appear.
fig.20-006d
4.
Move the cursor to “Bass Tone” and use the TIME/
VALUE dial to select a bass sound.
The bass sound selection will change.
fig.20-050d
Although playback may stop for a period of 1 to 2
seconds when the bass sound is changed, this is normal
and is not the result of a malfunction.
5.
When you have selected the bass sound that you want to use,
press [EXIT/NO] several times to return to the top screen.
6.
If you wish to store the bass sound selection, save the
current song (p. 72).
Selecting bass patterns
1.
Make sure that PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM
[ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] is extinguished (you’re
in Pattern mode).
If this button’s indicator is lit (which means you’re in
Arrangement mode), press PROGRAMMABLE
RHYTHM [ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] to turn it off.
2.
Press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM [EDIT].
The Pattern Selection screen will appear.
fig.20-005d
3.
Move the cursor to the bass pattern field and select a
pattern using the TIME/VALUE dial or the VALUE 3
knob.
Playback of the newly selected bass pattern will start as
soon as the previously selected bass pattern has ended.
4.
When you have selected the bass pattern that you want
to use, press [EXIT/NO] several times to return to the
top screen.
5.
If you wish to store the bass pattern selection, save the
current song (p. 72).
The bass sound selection is common to all bass
patterns. It is not possible to store a different bass
sound for each different pattern.
The user bass patterns and song bass patterns
contained in the BR-1600CD at the time of purchase
are empty; you won’t hear anything if you select one
of them. If you want to hear bass immediately after
setting up the BR-1600CD for the first time, select a
preset bass pattern.
“*TMP” appears for the bass pattern immediately
after its data is recorded or edited. If you try to select
a different bass pattern with the TIME/VALUE dial
while the cursor is positioned above this, the cursor
turns white. If you press [ENTER/YES] at this point,
the cursor reverts to black, and the bass pattern
number is confirmed. If you do not want to confirm
it, press [EXIT/NO]; “*TMP” is indicated again, and
the bass pattern reverts to the state it was in
immediately after editing. This allows you to avoid
inadvertently erasing data you have edited.
