Placing Patterns In The Desired Order; Starting Measure - Boss MICRO BR Owner's Manual

Placing patterns in the
desired order
If you want to specify a different pattern that will
play from Step number 2 or later, continue with the
following steps after you've performed "Specifying
the pattern for the first measure" (p. 86).
1.
Use CURSOR [
cursor to the step number.
2.
Use VALUE [-] [+] to increment the step.
You can also use [REW]/[FF] to move the current
step forward or backward in steps of one.
3.
Use CURSOR [
cursor to the pattern number.
4.
Use VALUE [-] [+] to select the pattern
number that you want to use in the Step
number 2.
5.
Use CURSOR [
cursor to the starting measure.
6.
Use VALUE [-] [+] to specify the measure
at which you want the selected pattern to
begin playing.
• The starting measure for step 1 is always set
to "001." This cannot be changed.
• You cannot set a measure in one step that is
also set in the previous step or earlier.
• You cannot set any measures beyond the
starting measure of the subsequent step.
• When an arrangement is played from within
the Play screen, the arrangement plays all
the way to the end, and then the
performance of the pattern set in the last
step is repeated.
• Thus, by setting the preset pattern "P327:
BREAK" for the last step, you can have a rest
be played repeatedly, which makes it seem
as if the performance of the arrangement has
stopped.
