8. Useful Functions in Pattern Writing Mode
a. Copying a
Rhythm Pattern
A rhythm pattern can be copied from one memory
location
to
another. After
copying, the pattern will
remain in its original location as well
as
appearing in
the new location
you
have
chosen. This function is
useful for when writing several similar rhythm pat-
terns or changing the order
of the patterns.
