When writing the rhythm for a musical composition using the
TR-626. the work can be largely divided into two areas:
1 )Pattern writing, which is to create a rhythm pattern of one bar.
There arc two ways to write patterns. One is to manually play the
TR -626 keeping time with the metronome (Tap Writing), and the
other is set the time for each drum voice (Step Writing).
2)Track Writing which is to write rhythm tracks for a composition
by combining user - programmed and preset rhythm patterns.
