The instruments are divided in 8 percussive sections with 8 separate slider volume controls, one
general rhythm volume control, 8 separate audio outputs.
MANUAL DRUMS
The Manual Drums switch is foreseen for manual rhythm or programming. In order to play manual-
ly the percussive instruments available, just insert Manual Drums and touch the first 16 keys of the
keyboard.
Each instrument is characterized by a graphic symbol.
The use of keys instead of normal pushbuttons permit a higher executing speed when programming.
The Manual Drums switch will not become operative if Record is inserted on the Sequencer section.
ACCENT: In order to put the accent on a certain beat just press the Accent key with the instru-
ment desired.
PRESET RHYTHMS
24 preset rhythms are available on Programmer 24S: Waltz 1, Waltz 2, Slow Waltz, Tango 1, Tango
2, Polka, March, March 6/8, Bossa Nova, Beguine, Samba, Mambo, Cha Cha, Ballad, Swing, Slow
Rock, Blues, Beat, Hard Rock, Funky, Boogie, Disco 1, Disco 2.
In order to play one of the preset rhythms, follow this procedure:
1) Push PRESET RHYTHMS switch so light is on.
2) Select the number of the rhythm required using the push-button panel 1-8. (None above 38)
The available preset rhythms are indicated on the left side of the instrument. The number of the
‘rhythm chosen appears on the DISPLAY preceded by a Point. (Example: .11).
3) Press START. The rhythm starts working.
Whenever START is pressed, the rhythm starts exactly from the beginning of the measure. In
the mean time AUTO BASS and MEMORY tabs come ON.
TOUCH START: If Touch Start is inserted, Rhythm and Accompaniment start only after playing a
key on the keyboard or on the pedalboard, in case the latter is connected.
Touch Start is not operative while a Song is playing and when Memory tab is On.
If you press Stop while Touch Start is On, the Memory function goes automatically Off.
STOP CONTINUE: By the control STOP CONTINUE the rhythm may be interrupted and started
again exactly on the point where it has been stopped, instead of starting again from the beginning of
the measure.
FILL IN: Each one of the 24 preset rhythms has its own Fill In. The Fill In is activated by manual
switch (pedal switch, is also available).
The Fill In occurs on the same beat in the Preset or in the Pattern at which it is pushed. The Fill In
can operate in 2 ways:
A) Fill In in switch is held down. In this case the Fill In loops continuosly until the switch is relea-
sed,
B) Fill In switch is released. In this case the Fill In will be over on the first beat of the following
measure.
All the Preset Fill In’s ends with a Crash cymbal blow.
When the Rhythm is stopped, the Fill In switch works as manual Crash Cymbal + Bass Drum.
Fill In starts always from the first measure of the Pattern, even if an 8 measure Fill In has been writ-
ten (Fill In Mode function).
If the Fill In switch is pushed and pushed again 2 or more times (max. 8 times) you will get successi-
vely 2 or more Fill In measures.
SLOW-FAST: Regulating these controls, the rhythm speed may be adjusted. Tempo valve appears
on the Display for 1 second a bout.
The speed range available is 30-252 beats іп a minute. The “beats per minute” are the pulses sup-
plied by the metronome within one minute on a standard pattern (i.e. one 4/4-measure with Error
Correct 16).
PROGRAM CHANGE: If you change the number of the Pattern (or Preset or Song) when Start is
On, the new number will appear on the Display only when the preceding Pattern (or Preset or Song)
is expired. If you change the number of the Pattern (or Preset or Song) when Start is Off, the new
number will immediately appear on the Display.
