or hold-down-for-continuous- movement actions. Also, pressing the SONG WRITE
key while in this mode sends you back to the beginning of the song instantly. At
any point in the song you can replace a part simply by entering a new pattern number.
Let's create a simple song consisting of four different patterns.
We'll use this song as a working example throughout this section of the manual.
Song Editing (Example: song 0, patterns 22,5,79,4)
The first four of the RX21 presets (numbers 56 thru 59) are blank patterns of various
lengths that enable you to rapidly enter breaks into songs. These are as follows:
Preset 56:
a 1/4 measure.
Preset 57:
a 2/4 measure.
Preset 58:
a 3/4 measure.
Preset 59:
a 4/4 measure.
Enter these patterns in the normal way, and use the repeat function to create longer
breaks, if needed. They can also be inserted or deleted just like any other pattern.
