Zoom MRT-3 - Manual (Page 14)

This section shows how to play and record patterns of the MRT-3 in pattern mode.
Playing a Pattern
The MRT-3 has 396 read-only preset patterns (A01 – D99) and 99 read/write user patterns (U01 –
U99). To select and play a pattern, proceed as follows.
In the factory default condition, all user patterns are empty.
1. Press the [PATTERN] key.
The [PATTERN] key lights up and the MRT-3 goes into pattern mode. The display shows
the bank and number of the currently selected pattern.
2. Use the [VALUE +/-] keys to select the pattern number.
In pattern mode, the [VALUE +/-] keys serve to select the pattern. For example, if you
repeatedly press the [VALUE +] key, the patterns are switched in the order U01 ... U99
➝A01 ... A99 ➝ B01 ... B99 ➝ C01 ... C99 ➝ D01 ... D99 ➝ U01.
3. To directly switch the bank, press the [FUNCTION] key and then use the [VALUE
+/-] keys.
This switches only the bank and keeps the pattern number.
The [FUNCTION] key serves for making various settings of the MRT-3. The actual effect of pressing
the key depends on the currently selected mode and on which other keys are used together with it.
