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
”.
NOTE
Again the “
PART
” number and “
MEASURE
” number prompts both get updated to
reflect the length of the latest pattern.
