Making the Rhythm Settings

drum pattern is called a “Rhythm.”

“Playing Rhythm ([RHYTHM])” (p. 51).

Adjusting the Tempo (Tempo)
Specify the tempo of the Rhythm.
NOTE
The RD-700 has only one tempo setting. Once you change the
setting, the tempo indicated in the Tone screen and the
tempo setting for the arpeggiator (p. 84) both change.
With Clock Source (p. 70) set to MIDI, “M:” appears in the
display, and the RD-700 is synchronized to the tempo of the
external MIDI device. The tempo cannot be changed with the
RD-700 when “M:” is indicated.
Changing Patterns (Pattern)
This selects the rhythm pattern. Select from 85 options.
When this is set to OFF, the Rhythm does not sound, even if
PART SWITCH [RHYTHM] is pressed.
You can also change a rhythm’s pattern in the “Rhythm/
Arpeggio screen” (p. 32).
When you change Patterns while a Rhythm is being played
back, the change to the new Pattern is made at the following
measure.
Selecting Rhythm Variations
(Rhythm Type)
Each Rhythm pattern features two variations that make up
each variation different percussion sounds.
Type 1 offering the simple Rhythm, and Type 2 featuring the
elaborate Rhythm.
When this is set to 2, a “ ” is displayed in the upper right of
each screen.
You can assign this function to a pedal and use the pedal to
control the function. For details, refer to
“Assigning
Functions to Pedals (FC1/FC2)” (p. 73).
When the Type is changed while a Rhythm is being played
back, a one-measure fill-in (short Phrase) is inserted, then the
new Type is played.
