Chapter 8 Creating and Performing Songs ([SONG])

Copying a song is useful and convenient 
whenever you want to take a previously created 
song, replace some of its patterns, change the 
tempo and other settings, and then store the 
result as a new song.

If the parameters below are changed during the 
performance of a song, the changes are nullified when you 
press [EDIT], restoring the settings for the currently 
selected style or song.

- Tempo value (p. 41)
- Sound Shape and Ambience values (p. 51, p. 52)

■ Setting the Basic Tempo

This sets the tempo that serves as the reference 
(the initial tempo) when the song is performed.

tempo.
The tempo can be set to any value from 20 to 
260.

By using a foot switch while playing back 
songs, you can set the DR-3 so that a single 
pattern plays back repeatedly until you 
press the foot switch, at which point the 
song advances to the next pattern.

Using these settings, you don’t have to 
determine how many times the patterns are 
to be played, but instead you can record 
each pattern just one time each in the 
sequence they are to be played, then use the 
foot switch to switch the patterns during 
playback.

When using a foot switch to switch song 
patterns, set the [EDIT] <SONG> 
“LoopType” to “BLOCK.” For more details, 
refer to “Setting a Specified Segment for 
Playing Repeatedly” (p. 87).
