Pattern Mode
The Pattern mode lets you play, record, edit and play your own original rhythm patterns. This section explains each
parameter in four types (Pattern Play, Pattern Record, Pattern Edit, and Pattern Job).
NOTE
The word “Pattern” refers to a short rhythmic passage of several measures which is looped and played back indefinitely. A
Pattern includes 16 variations called “Sections.” You can use Sections by changing them during playback. A Pattern consists of
16 Tracks and can be created by assigning a Phrase to each Track from the PATCH display (page 102). For details about the
Patterns, Sections and Phrases, see page 9.
Pattern Play
Pattern Play is the main “portal” by which you enter the Pattern mode, and it is here where you select and play a Pattern.
You can also create your own Patterns by assembling Phrases—which are short rhythmic passages and “building
blocks”—and create Pattern Chains in which Patterns can be combined together in any desired order.
Same as in the Song Play mode. See page 76. Note that the function of registering Scenes is not available in the Pattern
mode. The [SF1] – [SF6] buttons are assigned to ARP1 (Arpeggio 1) – ARP6 (Arpeggio 6). Also, the “Loc” (Location)
parameter is not in the PLAY display of the Pattern mode, and the following parameters are contained in the display.
(Keyboard Start)
When this parameter is set to on, Pattern playback begins as soon as you press a key on of the keyboard.
Settings: (on), (off)
NOTE From the PLAY display in the Pattern mode, you can select the Voice of the Mixing Part corresponding to the current Track by
pressing the [CATEGORY SEARCH] button.
Length
Determines the Pattern Length. This value will be the length of the Phrase created after recording.
Settings: 001 – 256
Same as the GROOVE display in the Song mode. See page 77.
Same as the TRACK display in the Song mode. See page 78. Please note that the [SF6] TR LOOP display is not
available in the TRACK display of the Pattern mode.
