Playing Rhythm Patterns
A rhythm pattern is a xed phrase played by rhythm instruments such as drums or percussion. The JUNO-DS can play back rhythm patterns assigned to pads [1]–[8] while you
use the keyboard to perform along with the rhythm patterns.
A rhythm pattern consists of eight “variations,” and the eight variations are collective called a “rhythm pattern group.”
When you select a rhythm pattern group, the variations are automatically assigned to pads [1]–[8].
