Outline Of The Tr-625 - Roland TR-626 Owner's Manual

Outline of the TR - 626
*The TR -626 Rhythm Composer is a rhythm machine that employs
digitally recorded drum voices, allowing you to enjoy perfectly
reproduced preset rhythm patterns, or user- programmed rhythms.
*Its 30 drum voices permit you to create a wide variety of basic
drum sounds, including Latin percussions. In addition, 8 drum
groups can be output from 8 Multi Out Jacks.
*The pitch and the level (volume) can be independently set for each
drum voice.
*The large display window makes the operation easy to see and
understand.
*You can program 6 Tracks (to a maximum of 999 bars) using 96
rhythm patterns, 48 preset and 48 user- programmed. Realistic
rhythms can be created by accenting each drum voice individually,
and by adding flam and shuffle effects.
*There arc two methods for programming a rhythm pattern ; Step
Writing in which the pattern is entered (or loaded) one Step at a
time, without worrying about tempo, and : Tap Writing, which is to
program a rhythm by actually tapping the Instrument Keys in time
with a metronome.
*Playing with a memory card, M-128D (optional), can be treated
exactly the same as the internal memory of the TR - 626. Data can
be instantaneously stored, or accessed. A memory card increases the
memory capacity 3 times.
*The tape interface function permits the storage of data using a
cassette tape.
*This unit meets MIDI specifications permitting interfacing with other
MIDI devices. It can be synchronized with them or be used as a
rhythm sound source. Its Tape Sync Function can be used for
multi-track recording in MTR (Multi Track Recorder).
