Inserting a Fill-in Phrase
A "fill-in" is a short phrase played where you want to change
the mood of a piece. A fill-in pattern can be used to create a
link between two melodies or as an accent.
1.
While a rhythm is playing, press the PTRN
button and then select a pattern.
2.
Press the FILL-IN button.
With some patterns, the fill-in continues until the end of
the measure where it is inserted. FILL is displayed while
a fill-in is playing.
• To continue the fill-in into the next measure, keep the
FILL-IN button depressed.
• Pressing the FILL-IN button while a rhythm is stopped
will insert the fill-in and cause it to be played as soon
as rhythm play is started. In this case, pressing the
FILL-IN button again before starting rhythm play will
remove the fill-in.
