2) To use the Fill In patterns:
Fill In patterns are designed to be used as temporary and regular rhythmic
breaks to spice up a repeating rhythm. Like the regular rhythms, all Fill In
patterns have been designed to perfectly match the bass and chord parts of the
Automatic Accompaniment feature.

NOTE:
USING A FILL IN FOR THE START

introductions; simply press the FILL IN
button before starting the rhythm with the
START or SYNCHRO START buttons.
NOTE:
PLAYING PARTIAL FILL IN
PATTERNS:
You can also start Fill In patterns within a
bar, in order to play only the final one or
two beats of the Fill In pattern and create
additional rhythmic interest. Since the Fill
In feature is very sensitive to bar/beat
boundaries, you should be very careful to
play the FILL IN button precisely on (or
just slightly before) the beat that you want
the Fill In pattern to begin.
About Metronome Function
In addition to 10 different rhythm styles, four types of metronome sounds,
simple metronome, two four, three four and four four, are assigned to the
SEQ 1 4 buttons, respectively, as the defaults. You can use one of them
by selecting a Metronome button and pressing the START button. Its tempo
and volume can be adjusted as you do for the normal panel rhythms.
Selecting any of the rhythm buttons changes the Metronome function to
normal rhythm play.
