Setting the Universal Beat for Drums, Bass, and Loop Phrases
Although every drum, bass, and Loop Phrase pattern has its
own beat setting, there is also a universal beat setting that
can be applied to all drum and bass patterns and Loop
Phrases as a whole.
When drum, bass, and loop phrase patterns are played
simultaneously in Pattern mode, they are not played
according to any of their individual beat settings, but instead
conform to one beat setting that is applied to them all.
Example 1) Universal Beat Set to 4/4
fig.20-200
Example 2) Universal Beat Set to 5/4
fig.20-201
The universal pattern beat is set at the factory to 4/4. You can
change this setting using the following procedure.

[ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] is extinguished (you’re
in Pattern mode).
If this button’s indicator is lit (which means you’re in
Arrange mode), press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM
[ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] to turn it off.
2. Press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM [EDIT].
The Pattern Selection screen will appear.

screen.
