Using the Rhythm Guide

The BR-1180/1180CD comes with a full-fledged internal Rhythm Guide feature, which uses PCM waveforms. The 294 "preset
rhythm patterns" and nine "drum kits," which are grouped together according to various musical styles, allow you to create
rhythm arrangements full of variation. You can also use the feature as a guide for practice and recording.
