Pressing keys to play the sound of a part
You can play the sound of a part by pressing the drum part keys, or by se-
lecting a synth part and pressing the step keys with the KEYBOARD key turned
on. The sound of each part will differ depending on the pattern. Turn the dial
to select various patterns, and try out the wide variety of sounds.
Playing the sound of a drum part
Press a drum part key 1 through 7B and you will hear the sound assigned
to each key.
Pressing the drum accent part key will not produce sound.
You cannot simultaneously sound drum parts 6A and 6B, nor 7A
and 7B.

Part (☞ Owner’s manual: p.22)
Pressing the synth part accent key
will not produce sound.
You cannot turn the KEYBOARD
key on/off unless one of the synth
part keys 1–5 are selected.
Since each synth part is a mono-
phonic synthesizer, it cannot sound
two or more notes simultaneously
(polyphonically).
