Creating bass patterns
Changing the bass pattern’s
groove (Swing)
The Swing function allows you to produce a swing-type
groove in your bass patterns by delaying the timing at which
notes with weaker beats are played.
1.
Move the cursor to “Swing Pos.” on the Bass Pattern
Edit screen.

2.
Select the type of note used to generate swing using the
TIME/VALUE dial.
OFF: No swing will be applied.
( ): Swing will be generated in units of eighth notes.
( ): Swing will be generated in units of sixteenth notes.
3.
Move the cursor to “Rate” and set the desired amount
of swing.
50%:
No swing will be applied. Weaker beats will be played
exactly halfway between the stronger beats.
51%–100%:
Swing will be generated in accord with the specified
value. A setting of 100% delays the weak beats by the
greatest possible degree, placing them at almost exactly
the same time position as the stronger beats that follow
them.

able to select a preset bass pattern at this time.

Press [F4] (GO).

pattern. When the message “Complete!” appears, it

If you select a different bass pattern or load a new
song without saving the current pattern, your new
swing setting will be lost. This setting will also be
lost if you turn off the BR-1600CD before saving.
Applying swing does not change the actual
performance data stored in a bass pattern.
Regardless of whether or not swing is actually
applied, performance data will always be displayed
at the same positions when you are using
Microscope.
