After erasing a pattern, the unit remembers the drum kit and bass
program type and other values, until the pattern is changed.
Therefore we recommend that you choose a pattern whose image
resembles the new one you want to create.
The [DELETE/ERASE] key LED and the pattern number are flashing,
and the indication "dEL?" appears on the [VALUE] display.
If you wish to delete all patterns, see page 47.
When the delete process is completed, the unit returns to the
pattern mode with the empty user pattern selected. At this time, the
[VALUE] display shows "----".
If the delete process was canceled, the unit returns to the pattern
mode with the original user pattern selected.
As shipped from the factory, the user patterns 01 - 99 of the RhythmTrak
•••
234 contain the same patterns
as the preset patterns P01 - P99. Therefore you must first delete a pattern if you wish to write your own
pattern to a user pattern slot. This is done as follows.

The RhythmTrak
•••
234 has 99 user pattern slots which can be filled with your own patterns. Creating and
recording a pattern is possible in two ways: by actually playing the pattern on the pads (real-time
recording), or by entering each sound individually (step recording). The procedure for real-time recording
of a drum track and bass track is described below.

If you erase a user pattern that you have created yourself, you will not
be able to restore it. Make sure that you really want to erase the
pattern before carrying out step 2. When wishing to return all user
patterns to the factory default condition, please refer to page 52.
