Rhythm/Keyboard Percussion
INTRO
Pressing one of the INTRO [1] – [3] buttons automatically adds
a short introduction before starting the actual (Main) rhythm.
First press one of the INTRO [1] – [3] buttons, then press the
[START] or [SYNCHRO START] button to actually start
the rhythm.
While the introduction is playing, the BAR/BEAT display
shows the countdown to the first measure of the pattern.
For example, if there is a four-measure lead-in for a pattern
in 4/4 time, the display at right appears:
ENDING
Pressing one of the ENDING [1] – [3] buttons automatically
adds an ending phrase before stopping the rhythm.
When you press the Ending button while rhythm is
playing back, the rhythm will automatically stop after the
ending phrase is played. You can have the ending gradually
slow down (ritardando) by pressing the ENDING button once again, while the ending
is playing.
To switch the rhythm sections:
You can change the rhythm section of the Main phrase by pressing the desired MAIN/
FILL IN [A] – [D] button. The selected section’s lamp (above the button) is lit.
To use the Fill In patterns:
As you play the DDK-7 along with the rhythm, occasionally press the selected MAIN/
FILL button as desired. The Fill In pattern (one measure) will be played and the
selected Fill In section’s lamp (above the button) flashes.
When you use the Auto Fill In function, Fill Ins will be played automatically. The Auto
Fill In function is set in the Rhythm Condition display.
Pressing the Rhythm button on the panel again (or pressing the rhythm name of the
selected rhythm in the display again) calls up the Rhythm Condition Display.
NOTE
When an Intro or Ending
pattern is playing, the Lower
Keyboard cannot be played.
NOTE
Pressing the ENDING [1]
button during playback of
the Main section will first call
up the fill in pattern, then the
Ending 1 pattern.
