PATTERNS — THE STYLE MODE
Starting with a Lead In section
Each style has its own two- or four-measure Lead In section. Many of
the Lead In sections also include special chord changes and embel-
lishments to enhance your performance.
To start with a Lead In section:
1) Press the BEAT A or BEAT B button — to select which section
(A or B) is to follow the Lead In.
2) Press the LEAD IN button.
To actually start the Lead In section and pattern, press the
START/STOP button.
Once the Lead In section is finished, the icon section of the
display briefly shows the letter “A” or “B” to indicate that the
selected Beat section is currently playing.

Using Sync-Start
The DJX also has a Sync-Start function that allows you to start the
pattern by simply pressing a key on the keyboard. To use Sync-Start,
first press the SYNC-START button (the beat bars below the style
name all flash to indicate Sync-Start stand-by), then press any key on
the keyboard in the PATTERN section.
