Note:
In this example we have entered the entire pattern
without changing the quantize setting, but it is also
possible to change the quantize setting while recording
a pattern. If quantize is changed, it will become ef-
fective from the next measure, and will blink until it
becomes effective.
In this example, we have assumed that the rhythm
instruments are assigned to the keyboard as when
rhythm assign is set to “PRESET 1”.
PATTERN JOB FUNCTIONS
There are many ways to edit the patterns you create.
We will start our explanation of pattern editing from
the following display.
If you are in song play mode, press the below
“ > toPTN”, entering pattern mode. Press to get
the following display.
Pressing the below “ >EXIT” will return to the
previous display.
Copy
Press the below “ > COPY”.
Function
Copy a pattern to another pattern number.
Explanation
When only one pattern is specified as the copy source,
the pattern will be copied to the internal pattern
memory you specify.

Using the rhythm machine
If you specify two patterns as the copy source, the
specified patterns will be connected and copied to the
destination. (The total measures of the two source
patterns will be the length of the new destination
pattern.)
Copy sources may be preset patterns or internal
patterns. After specifying the source pattern(s) and
the ‘destination pattern, press the below
“ > GO”.
You will get a message of "Are you sure?". When
you press pattern copy will be executed.
Note:
It is not posible to copy patterns to preset pattern
memory.
When copying two patterns to another pattern,
the two source patterns must have the same time
signature. Also, the total length of the two source
patterns must not exceed four measures. If the two
source patterns contain an unusually large number
of notes, it may be impossible to copy them to another
pattern.
