Overview of the Rhythm Section

Arrangements

Although a pattern can be used by itself like a metronome
to guide your practicing, that would mean that the rhythm
does not change from the beginning to the end of the song.
If you want to create a song that has musical variation,
you’ll want to place different patterns in an appropriate
order such as intro

chorus

break

ending.

On the BR-800, data that places patterns in a specific order
for performance is called an “arrangement.”

Preset arrangements (P01–P50)

The BR-800 contains fifty “preset arrangements” (P01–P50)
that are suitable for styles such as rock or jazz.

* You can’t edit the preset arrangements or rewrite the data.

The preset arrangements (except for Metro 4/4) have a
three measure BREAK (rest) following E (ending), and will
then repeat V1 (verse 1).

“Preset Arrangement List” (p. 144)

Song arrangements (S01–S05)

You can store five arrangements for each song on an SD
card.

In order to play arrangements, the BR-800 must be in
Arrangement mode.
For more about this, refer to “Playing an
Arrangement” (p. 93).

Typically, a drum performance uses a set that includes a
variety of percussion instruments (such as kick drum and
snare drum) suitable for that musical style.

The BR-800 provides nine different drum sets that are
suitable for various styles. Each set is called a “drum kit.”
