A Style is made up of the different Sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.) and each Section has separate
channels (rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing, multi pad, or phrase, each of which is referred to as a
“Source Pattern”). With the Style Creator function, you can create an original Style by separately recording
the channels, or by copying pattern data from other existing Styles.
