Phrase Loop
Phrase loop refers to the repeated playback of a phrase that's been pulled out of a song (e.g., by using a sampler). One technique involving the
use of Phrase Loops is the excerpting of a Phrase from a pre-existing song in a certain genre, for example dance music, and then creating a new
song with that Phrase used as the basic motif. This is referred to as "Break Beats."
FXM
FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation) uses a specified waveform to apply frequency modulation to the currently selected waveform, creating
complex overtones. This is useful for creating dramatic sounds or sound effects.

Explanation
Group containing the waveforms comprising the rhythm tone
INT: Waveforms stored in internal
EXP: Waveform stored in a Wave Expansion Board (SRX series) installed in EXP slots
When the Wave Group is EXP
A, B: Wave expansion board slots
Waves comprising the rhythm tone (The upper limit will depend on the Wave Group and Wave
Bank.)
When in monaural mode, only the left side (L) is specified. When in stereo, the right side (R) is
also specified.
If you want to select a left/right pair of Waves, select the left (L) Wave number, and then hold
down [SHIFT] and press [5 (STEREO)] to add a check mark (✔); the right (R) (Wave) will be
recalled.
Gain (amplification) of the waveform
The value changes in 6 dB (decibel) steps—an increase of 6 dB doubles the waveform's gain.
When you wish to synchronize a Phrase Loop to the clock (tempo), set this to "ON."
* This is valid only when a separately sold wave expansion board is installed, and a waveform
that indicates a tempo (BPM) is selected.
If a waveform from a wave expansion board is selected for the tone, turning the Wave Tempo
Sync parameter "ON" will cause pitch-related settings and FXM-related settings to be ignored.
This sets whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF).
How FXM will perform frequency modulation
Higher settings result in a grainier sound, while lower settings result in a more metallic sound.
