Using the Pattern Variations

Each preset pattern has 6 variations or "sections" — INTRO, NORMAL, VARIATION, FILL 1, FILL 2, and ENDING.
INTRO ................... introduction.
NORMAL .............. normal pattern, used for the "verse" of a song.
VARIATION ........ normally used as a chorus or bridge.
FILL 1 ................... fill-in 1, transition (from normal) to variation.
FILL 2 ................... fill-in 2, transition (from variation) to normal.
ENDING ................ ending pattern.
When the INTRO, FILL 1, and FILL 2 sections
are selected, the section plays through once and is
automatically followed by either the NORMAL or
VARIATION pattern. INTRO is followed by
NORMAL, FILL 1 is followed by VARIATION and
FILL 2 is followed by NORMAL. The FILL 1 and
FILL 2 patterns automatically provide smooth,
"musical" transitions between the NORMAL and VARIATION sections. Playback stops automatically after the ENDING
section.
The fill-ins — FILL 1 and FILL 2 — will play repeatedly as long as the button is held.
The currently selected section is shown in the
"SECTION" area of the display.
