Yamaha RY20 Manual Do Utilizador

Recording a User Pattern

To skip a beat, press the

[FORWARD] button. The flashing current position

“ ” indicator will move to the next beat. Each time you press the
[FORWARD] button, the RY20 moves forward to the next beat.

Through a combination of tapping the drum pads and pressing the
[FORWARD] button, you will soon cover the two default measures.

When you have completed the two measures, the RY20 loops back to the
beginning of the pattern.

This feature allows you to layer your pattern. For example, start by
recording the bass drum part. After you have recorded two measures of
bass drum parts, record the snare drum part.

If you missed a beat, or accidently skipped a beat, you can step back with
the

[BACKWARD] button.

Stop recording by pressing the

[RECORD] button again. The red Record LED

turns off and the RY20 returns to Pattern Mode.

HINT

The RY20 provides the

[AUDITION]

button to allow you to play a drum pad while

pattern record is active, without actually recording the voice associated with the
pad.

Press and hold the

[AUDITION]

button, then tap any drum pad. The voice will sound,

but will not be recorded.

NOTE

The behavior of the

[FORWARD]

and

[BACKWARD]

buttons is explained in more detail

starting on page 41.

NOTE

If you have recorded a long and complex pattern, the RY20 may need a short time to
arrange the data in its memory. In this case the prompt “

PLEASE WAIT

” may

momentarily appear on the display,
