Recording with the EXB-PCM-03 patterns – TRITON Classic/Studio
EXBPCM03 Future Loops construction expansion board adds new drum samples in a pattern play mode to
create great drum grooves that can be triggered by the RPPR (Real-time Pattern Play Record) mode in the
sequencer. Not only can these loops be played, but they can be recorded into your own songs. This tutorial
will guide you on how to use the looped patterns into your own song.

NOTE: If you are using a TRITON Studio, you may have to make certain that you are looking at the
