TR Operations
For deck 3, you can play “patterns” created using drum sounds
(instruments) such as those of a Roland TR-808 rhythm machine.
What are patterns?
“Patterns” contain performance data for instruments. Sixteen patterns are
provided.
Each pattern has eight “variations,” and when you select a pattern, the
variations are automatically assigned to performance pads 1–8.
