Copying Rhythm Patterns to
Create Rhythm Parts

The KR features numerous internal rhythm patterns. You can
copy these rhythm patterns to create a rhythm part.

For more information about the name of Rhythm Patterns,
please refer to “Rhythm Pattern List” (p. 199).

At Step 3 of “Selecting the editing function” (p. 135), select
<Copy>.

For more about ordinary copying, please refer to “Copying
Measures (Copy)” (p. 136).

Select “Rhythm Pattern” as the <Src>.

This makes the setting for copying a built-in Rhythm Pattern.

• The rhythm pattern’s name and beat are indicated in the

<From> column.

• The <Dst> is fixed at “Part 10.”
• When the <Src> is switched to something other than

“Rhythm Pattern,” the KR is set to carry out normal
copying.

Press the [

(Play/Stop)] button to play back and

confirm the rhythm pattern. The rhythm pattern stops when

you press the [

(Play/Stop)] button once more.

Correcting Timing
Discrepancies (Quantize)

You can correct for timing discrepancies in a recorded
performance by automatically aligning the music with the
timing you specify. This is called “Quantizing.”

As an example, let’s say that the timing of some quarter-
notes in a performance is a little off. In this case, you can
quantize the performance with quarter-note timing, thus
making the timing accurate.

At Step 3 of “Selecting the editing function” (p. 135), select
<Quantize>.

A screen like the one shown below appears.

When finished with the Quantize settings, return to the Song
Edit screen.

Mode

Data can be copied in the following three ways:

Replace

If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, this previous recording is erased,
and the copied data is written in its place.

Mix

If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, the copied data is layered over the
previous recording. If the Tones used for the
copy source and copy destination are different,
the copy-destination Tone is used.

Insert

If there is a performance recorded at the copy
destination, the copied portion is inserted
without erasing the previous recording. The
song is lengthened by the number of inserted
measures.
