The pattern and chord tracks are independent! When deleting a pattern, the succeeding parts will be
moved up by one part. Therefore, take care that your pattern deletions don’t alter your song structure in
relation to the chord track.
INSERTING A PATTERN - After recording a song, you can go back and insert a
pattern at any time. First, in Song Record Mode, locate the measure of the
pattern that you want to play after the inserted pattern, by pressing [FWD] and
[BWD]. Next, hold [MODE] and press [PAGE+] twice. The word “INS” (Insert)
will appear in the upper left area of the LCD, and the word “SURE?” will
appear in the lower left area of the LCD. Next, select the new pattern by
pressing [-1] and [+1]. Then, press [ENTER] to insert the selected pattern.
(The inserted pattern will become a new song part, and all parts which
succeed it will automatically be pushed back by one part each, thus
lengthening the song by one part.)
