Switch between Banks
Even though there are five buttons in the PATTERN PLAYER, you have a total of ten Patterns at your disposal — thanks
to the A/B BANK button.
Each Bank, A and B, has five Patterns.
When the A/B BANK button lamp is off, you can play Patterns A1 to A5.
When
the A/B BANK button lamp is on, you can play Patterns B1 to B5.
Pressing the button doesn’t change the Pattern, it only
enables the Bank.
So if you press the A/B BANK button by mistake, don’t worry — simply press it again, and you’re
back to the original bank, without any sound changes!
Try this example:
1
Start Pattern A1.
Press Pattern button 1.
2
Select Bank B.
Press the A/B BANK button.
The A/B BANK button is on and Pattern button 1 flashes.
(The flashing Pattern button indi-
cates Bank select standby.).
Notice that Pattern A1 is still playing.
It will only change if you press another Pattern button..
3
Press Pattern button 3.
Now Pattern B3 is playing.
4
Select Bank A again.
The A/B BANK button is off and Pattern button 3 flashes.
5
Press Pattern button 1.
Now you’re back to Pattern A1.
