Dotted Buttons and User Rhythms
The Rhythm section also has, like the voice sections, dotted buttons
from which rhythms can be selected.
These dotted buttons function
as "wild card" rhythm selectors; any of the rhythms available from
the panel buttons, the Rhythm Menus or User rhythms can be
selected from these buttons.
NOTE:
As with the Voice sections dotted buttons,
you can set two or three rhythms from the
same page to be selected from different
buttons (one from the original Rhythm
button, and the others from the dotted
buttons).
(1) To select a rhythm from a dotted button:
1
Press one of the dotted buttons on the right side of the Rhythm
section.
The Rhythm Menu page appears.
2
Select one of the pages with the Page buttons.
Each page represents the same general rhythm types as those
selected from the panel buttons.
The currently assigned rhythm
name appears at the top of the display when the page has been
selected.
The rhythm name shown at the top of the LCD is that of the
currently assigned rhythm and is irrelevant to the Rhythm Menu
below.
3
Press the Data Control button corresponding to the rhythm you
wish to use.
