Using the Rhythm
The “Rhythm” is a dedicated Rhythm track that can not
only play back Rhythm sounds as a guide during recording,
you can also use it to play internal Rhythm patterns and
original user-created Rhythm patterns and to play and
record these patterns as your own Rhythm part
performances.
Recording in time with the Rhythm allows you to edit
individual measures and use other convenient functions.
For more details, refer to “Editing the Performance on a
Track (Track Edit)” (p. 75).
You can also change the tempo or Rhythm pattern during a
song.
For more details, refer to “Section 4 Using The Rhythm” (p.
131).
The Rhythm features two modes, “Pattern” and
“Arrangement.”
Pattern
These are drum performance phrases from one to several
measures in length.
Internal patterns (preset patterns) include prepared patterns
for intros, verses, fill-ins, and endings.
Arrangement
Patterns arranged in the order they are performed (for
example, intro, verse, fill-in, verse, and ending) and played
at the selected tempo comprise a song.

Switching to "Pattern mode" may be necessary in order to
play patterns. Likewise, you may need to switch to
"Arrangement mode" to play arrangements.
Pattern Mode
This mode is used to play a single pattern repeatedly.
You can also create and edit patterns in this mode.
Arrangement Mode
This mode is used to play arrangements.
You can also create and edit arrangements in this mode.
