3. Playing patterns
By successively playing back your original patterns and existing
patterns while you use the faders (or other means) to add variation
to your performance, you can perform a song in real time in a way
similar to creating a DJ mix.
If you’re going to switch patterns in real time, you may want to
maintain the tempo of the pattern you’re starting with, so that the
tempo won’t change for each pattern you select.
For details, refer to
You can vary the brightness of the sound by using the faders to
control the cutoff and resonance.

3.
Press [PART SELECT] so it’s lit, and choose part 16.

In addition to cutoff and resonance, the MC-808 provides multi-
