Using the Pads to Play Patterns
In addition to using the pads for conventional drumming, you can also set
the pads so that striking a pad will play back a programmed pattern (pad
patterns). This function, whereby you can play back the sounds contained
in a pattern each time a pad is struck, provides the kind of individualized
performances available only with electronic drums.
This function is used in some of the preset drum kits. Here, let’s play using
Kit 6 “1ManBand”.
