Creating bass patterns
 
When you cannot find a suitable bass pattern for your song 
among the BR-1600CD’s preset bass patterns, you can easily 
create an original pattern as described below. Either one of 
the following two methods can be used to do this.
 
 
 Real-time recording
 
Real-time recording allows you to tap the track buttons in 
time with a metronome and to record the performance data 
produced. The bass pattern will be repeated over and over, 
with new performance data being constantly mixed into it. 
Furthermore, a quantize function can be used to fix any 
slight deviations in the timing of your performance.
 
 
 Step recording
 
Use step recording to enter bass notes one by one while the 
pattern is not being played back. If you find it difficult to 
create satisfactory patterns using real-time recording, use this 
function to easily and conveniently produce the desired 
results. 
 
Preparing for recording
 
When a MIDI keyboard is connected to the MIDI IN 
port, you will be able to use this keyboard to perform 
real-time recording. Note that there is no need to set a 
MIDI channel for the MIDI keyboard in such a case (p. 
234).
Before you use either real-time recording or step recording, 
you will need to select the bass pattern to be recorded.
 
1.
 
Make sure that PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM 
[ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] is extinguished (you’re 
in Pattern mode).
 
If this button’s indicator is lit (which means you’re in 
Arrangement mode), press PROGRAMMABLE 
RHYTHM [ARRANGEMENT/PATTERN] to turn it off. 
 
2.
 
Press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM [EDIT].
 
The Pattern Selection screen will appear.

4.
 
Move the cursor to the pattern number and select the 
number of the bass pattern to be recorded using the 
TIME/VALUE dial.

If you press [PLAY] at this time, you will be able to hear 
the selected bass pattern.
 
The user bass patterns and song bass patterns contained 
in the BR-1600CD at the time of purchase are empty; you 
won’t hear anything if you select one of them.
 
5.
 
Use [CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to set the 
number of beats and measures in the bass pattern. 
 
The display for the bass pattern will change to “*TMP.”
• “*TMP” appears for the bass pattern immediately 
after its data is recorded or edited. If you try to select 
a different bass pattern with the TIME/VALUE dial 
while the cursor is positioned above this, the cursor 
turns white. If you press [ENTER/YES] at this point, 
the cursor reverts to black, and the bass pattern 
number is confirmed. If you do not want to confirm 
it, press [EXIT/NO]; “*TMP” is indicated again, and 
the bass pattern reverts to the state it was in 
immediately after editing. This allows you to avoid 
inadvertently erasing data you have edited.
• From now on, you cannot use the Undo function 
(Basic Operation; p. 42) for creating or editing bass 
patterns. Please make sure to crate or edit data with 
a special care.
