Playing the Preset Patterns
A new pattern can be selected while another pattern is already
playing on the RY20.
Select the next pattern by rotating the Jog Dial or by using the
[ +1 ]
and
[ –1 ]
buttons.
The “
NEXT
” indicator lights up until the current pattern has finished. The
name then changes on the display and the new pattern starts to play.
If the pattern you have selected is empty, the “
EMPTY
” indicator will also
light up.
A pattern on the RY20 consists of six sections. Each section can be
programmed for a specific purpose. The preset patterns have all six
sections programmed.
The sections are:
•
INTRO
- This section is used for the introduction to the pattern.
When it has finished playing the introduction, the RY20
automatically switches to the “
MAIN A
” section.
•
MAIN A
- This is the default section. It can be used for the basic
verse and chorus structure of a pattern.
•
MAIN B
- This the alternative section. It can be used for the
bridge structure of a pattern.
There are two transition sections, both play immediately when
selected:
•
FILL AB
- This section is used to make the transition between the
verse/chorus section and the bridge section. When it is complete,
the unit starts to play section “
MAIN B
”.
