What is a Pattern?
A “pattern” is a short segment of a performance that consists of
rhythm patterns created by drum parts (drum sounds) and phrase
patterns (melodic lines) created by synth parts.
The EMX-1 lets you create and store 256 patterns. Each pattern con-
sists of 16 parts. In addition to the sound of each part, a pattern
contains effect settings and phrases, and can also record knob move-
ments.
