Rhythm/tempo settings

The D1600mkII contains numerous rhythm patterns for a
variety of time signatures (→p.174 "Rhythm Pattern
List").
When you have a sudden idea for a song, you can record
your performance immediately, using the built-in
rhythms as a guide.
By joining various rhythm patterns, you can also create
drum patterns for an entire song.
