Pattern Data Files
Each of the 16 patterns associated with a song has its own Pattern Data le. When a song is loaded from Storage Memory, these 16 Pattern Data les are loaded in
addition to the Song Data le. These 16 patterns are called the Live Patterns. Changes made to the Live Pattern Data les do not persist. The les must be saved back to
the Storage Memory before another song and its associated patterns are loaded.
Pattern Data
All of the data in a pattern are contained in its Pattern Data le. The data is shown below:
Preference Name Description Values
Pattern Data Version From time to time, new versions of the RD-9 rmware will be released. This rmware
will contain both bug xes and new features. Additional parameters may be added to
the Pattern Data le to support those new features. The Pattern Data le is therefore
versioned to guarantee compatibility between rmware releases.
Product Variant The RD-9 is part of a series of Behringer products that sequence songs. This parameter is
used to distinguish between RD-9 Pattern Data les and other pattern data les.
