Playing Rhythms
This function lets you produce a variety of rhythm patterns simply
by pressing a single key. You can use the built-in rhythm patterns
and also create your own. When the Fantom-XR is shipped from the
factory, it contains 256 “preset” rhythm patterns and 256 “user”
patterns in which you can store your own original creations.
Rhythm patterns are not part of the Performance; they are
handled as separate data. This means that a rhythm pattern can
be used with more than one patch or performance.
Settings that specify the pattern triggered by each of the twelve keys
are collectively known as a “group.”
When shipped from the factory, there are thirty-two “preset” rhythm
groups and thirty-two “user” rhythm groups in which you can store
your own original creations.
Rhythm groups are not part of the Rhythm Set nor the
Performance; they are handled as separate data. This means
that a rhythm group can be used with more than one patch or
performance.

specified in Rhythm Group Edit (p. 109).
