Playing Rhythm Patterns
We have just programmed ten Rhythm Patterns. We will now play these Rhythm
Patterns and show some new functions.
PROCEDURE
1. Set the rhythm to stop position by pressing RUN/STOP (H).
2. Set the MODE selector (B) to PATTERN PLAY.
3. Select Pattern Group I (N).
4. Select a Rhythm Pattern by pressing the SELECTOR switch (K) (press #1 in
this case).
5. Press the RUN/STOP button (H) to start the rhythm running.
6. Press another SELECTOR switch (K). (Press #2 in this case).
* At the end of the first Rhythm Pattern, the #2 Rhythm will begin to play and
repeat.
7. Press the SELECTOR switches (K) #2 and #4 simultaneously.
* The LED indicators (L) #2, #3, and #4 will light up, and the rhythms will
play in sequence from #2 to #3 to #4 and then back to #2 again.
* This is called CHAINING THE RHYTHM PATTERNS. Rhythms can be
chained up to four rhythms in a block. The TR-606 has four blocks, #1-4, 5-8,
9-12, and 13-16.
8. NOTE: The TR-606 can only chain rhythms within the blocks indicated above,
it cannot for example, chain from #3 to #6.
9. Press the SELECTOR switch (K) #1 again.
* The rhythm returns to #1 rhythm at the end of the #4 rhythm and repeats
rhythm #1.
10. Press the RUN/STOP button (H) to stop the rhythm.
Composing a Rhythm Track
We have programmed ten Rhythm Patterns shown in Fig. 2 into the memory locations
#1 - #10. Through the use of these rhythms, we will now compose an entire
composition in Track #1 according to the following composition table.
Fig. 3 Track Composition Table
| I-1 | % | % | I-2 |
| I-5 | I-6 | I-7 | I-8 |
| I-9 | I-3 | I-9 | I-4 |
| I-9 | I-3 | I-9 | I-10|
