Overview of the Rhythm Section
The BR-800 provides a dedicated rhythm generator that is
separate from the audio tracks 1–7/8.
You can use this rhythm as a guide during recording, or
create an original rhythm backing by arranging various
internal rhythms to match the structure of your song.
Broadly speaking, the BR-800’s rhythms consist of
“patterns” and “arrangements.”
■
Patterns
Typically, a drummer playing in a band repeatedly plays
fixed sequences one or two measures in length.
On the BR-800, these basic repeated units are called
“patterns.”
Song patterns (S001–S100)
One hundred patterns can be stored for each song on an SD
card.
Preset patterns (P001–P327)
The BR-800 provides 327 “preset patterns” (P001–P327) that
are suitable for various musical styles such as rock or jazz.
* You can’t edit these patterns or rewrite the data.
For details on how to play patterns, refer to “Playing
Patterns” (p. 91).

“Preset Pattern List” (p. 151)
IN (intro)
These patterns are suitable for an intro
(introduction).
V (verse) 1, 2
These are the main patterns.
1 is the basic pattern, and 2 is a variation of 1.
F (fill) 1, 2
These are ornamental patterns inserted between
phrase changes. Choose 1 or 2 depending on the
pattern that will follow the fill.
E (ending)
These patterns are suitable for the end of a song.
* You can’t edit the preset patterns or rewrite the data.
Using BR-800 Rhythm Editor
By using “BR-800 Rhythm Editor” you can create
your own original patterns, arrangements, and drum
kits using a computer.
“BR-800 Rhythm Editor” is provided on the “BR-800
DVD-ROM.” For details on where to find “BR-800
Rhythm Editor,” refer to “ReadmeEN.txt” on the

* You won’t be able to create patterns or drum kits
using just the BR-800.
* You must install the USB driver before you connect
the BR-800 to your computer (p. 118).
