SEQUENCES
A Sequence is a recorded pattern stored in the RBM-20 module that
includes drums and Accompaniment. The drum part of the Sequence
includes the Kit sounds (Instruments) as well the recorded pattern itself.
The Accompaniment is the music that plays along with the drum part.
Sequences can be recorded, edited, looped, and stored. You can also mute
the drum part and/or Accompaniment while playing a Sequence.
To hear a demo Sequence, simply hold down SEQ/SONG and press PLAY.
Important: At any given time, the RBM-20 module
has a Kit selected and a Sequence selected.
• If you change the Sequence, this will change your current Kit
to the one that is associated with that Sequence.
• If you change the Kit, this will NOT change the current Sequence.
However, if you then play the current Sequence, the chords or “hit groups”
may sound unusual. In this case, we recommend muting Layer B of that
Kit’s Accompaniment (see
EDITING VOICE & ACCOMPANIMENT PARAMETERS
for more information) or muting the Accompaniment
altogether by pressing MUTE ACCOMP.
Note:
Whenever you edit a Sequence or make changes to any parameters,
an “E” will appear in the upper-right corner of the main screen of the Sequencer
to indicate this. In order to retain these settings for future sessions, you must
store the Sequence (see
STORING SEQUENCES under the STORING &
COPYING DATA
chapter).
