Be sure to record four beats for each measure, even when
recording a song that is to be played with a three-beat

When specifying the root of chord, for example, you can hold
down the "4" or "9" number button instead of pressing the
foot pedal to raise the root a semitone. Also, you can lower
the root a semitone by holding down the "5" or "0" number
button when you play a pad.

If you wish, you can press the FILL IN buttons 17) while
recording to add fill-in patterns to your song. No matter what
beat you press the FILL IN button on, the fill-in will advance
the count to the top of the next measure. You can play a
chord during a fill in by specifying the chord before you press
the FILL IN button. If you do not specify a chord, the result
will be a rest (i.e., percussion with no chords) during the fill-
in. You cannot program a chord change in the middle of a fill-
in.
Let's look at an example. To record the following measure,
you would want to perform the steps described below. —
Ат С Fil 1

1. Play an А? minor chord.
Tap pad 6 while holding down the foot pedal or the "4" or
"9" number button, to select the Af root. Then, tap pad 5
to select the minor chord type.
2. Play a half note.
Press the "2" or "7" number button to hold the As minor
chord for two beats.
3. Play a C major chord.
Tap pad 1 to the C root. Since the major chord type is
automatically selected, there is no need to hit a second
pad to specify the chord type.
5. Play a fill in pattern.
Press the FILL IN 1 button to add a fill in pattem on the
fourth beat of the measure. Since you won't specify a
chord before selecting the fill in, the rhythm section will
play it without any chord backing: hence, the rest.
5.3 Playback
To play back a recorded song, press the CHORD MEMORY
PLAY button (1) corresponding to the desired song. If the
song does not include an ending pattern, the DD-12 will play
the song repeatedly until you stop it.
Play along on the percussion pads (5) if you like. You can
also select a different accompaniment style, change the
current percussion set, add fill-ins, or change the tempo
during playback.
To stop the playback, press the START/STOP button (6) or
the INTRO/ENDING button (8.
