HINT Most songs consist of an intro, a number of measures of verse and chorus, optionally a bridge, and an ending. The patterns of the RY20 follow this design. For example, start your song off with an "INTRO" section. Then select the "MAIN A" section and record four parts. Record a single part of "FILL AB" and follow it with two parts of "MAIN B", a single part of "FILL BA" to make the transition back. Record another four parts of "MAIN A", then select "ENDING". 8 Press the [FORWARD] button again. NOTE Again the "PART" number and "MEASURE" number prompts both get updated to reflect the length of the latest pattern. 9 Repeat steps 7 and 8 until you have completed your song. 64
