Programming
of

is done
in the
same manner, the sole
diffe-
rence
being the
position of the

Writing
Chained Rhythm
Patterns
The
Chained
Rhythm Pattern
can be selected
in

SELECTOR Switches
©within a group (1-4.
5^8,

16). As
we
said before.
Chained
Rhythm
Patterns
can be used
to create
Rhyilmi
Patterns
of two
or more
measures
in length or
to create
Rhythm Patterns
in
odd
time
signatures.
Chained
Rhythm
Patterns are
also
mentioned
in

the same
procedures
while the Rhythm
runs to

SCALE and
STEP
Number. You have
just set up a Rhythm
Pattern
that extends over
two Selector
posi-
tions which
gives you a
total
of
32 steps for the
measure (eacfi
step now corresponding to a
thirty-second
note).
TAP
programming
is
easier
in this case than
Step programming.

Press
HUN/STOP (H) when
programming
has
been
completed.
As you can
see.
Chaining
Rhythms
are used
to
program a measure
re-
quiring
more than
16 Steps.
With the
Clearing
operationjpressing
the
CLEAR/RESET button
(F)l,
both
ui the
two Patterns
are erased.
When
using
Chained
Rhythms,
it
is
necessary
to
set
up
the
SCALE
and
STEP number
for each
Rhythm used.
However,
the
number
of
STEPS
or
SCALE
of
the
Ctiained
Rhythms do
not
have
to
fje the same.
It
is possible to select different
SCALE and
different
STEPs for
each
Chained
Rhythm by
quickly
changing the
SCALE and STEP selec-
tion
while the
TR-606 runs from one Chained
Rhythm
to the other.
This is usually most
suc-
cessful if
it is
done
while the TEMPO is
running
fairly
slowly.
