Notes on Pattern Recording
- If you have recorded a pattern by using Pad Bank
Layer with Pad Bank A or B , all instrument sounds
will be automatically played in Pad Bank Layer
when the pattern is played back.
- The instruments recorded in a pattern cannot be
changed later by pressing [PAD BANK].
- Even if you select Pad Bank A or B by pressing [PAD
BANK] to play back the pattern recorded with Pad
Bank Layer, only the instrument of Pad Bank A will
be played.

Realtime Recording a Pattern
1.
Press [SONG/PTN] so the display indicates
“PATTERN.”
The DR-770 is now in Pattern mode.
2.
Press [REAL/STEP] so the display indicates “REAL.”

Use [VALUE*] to select the pattern (user pattern) that
you wish to record.

indicate “QUANTIZE.”
fig.103-01a
5.
Use [VALUE*] to specify the Quantize setting.
Quantize is a function that corrects inaccuracies in the
timing at which you strike pads during recording, so
that notes are aligned precisely with the beat. Normally
you should set the Quantize setting to the smallest note
value that you intend to record.
fig.103-02a
If you do not wish to quantize, select “OFF.” If OFF is
selected, the notes will be recorded at the exact timing at
which you strike the pads.
6.
Press [CURSOR
] to make the Beat Length display
blink.
7.
Use [VALUE*] to specify the Beat Length.
Beat Length is the number of quarter notes in the
pattern.
For example, if you wanted to record a pattern
consisting of one measure of 4/4 time, you would set
Beat Length to “4.” If you wanted to record a two-
measure pattern in 3/4 time, you would set Beat Length
to “6.”
8.
Press [DRUM KIT] to make “DRUM KIT” blink.
9.
Use [VALUE*] to select a drum kit.
You can choose from preset drum kits 1–64 and user
drum kits 65–128.

List” (p. 98).

After selecting a drum kit, press [DRUM KIT] once
again.
“DRUM KIT” will change from blinking back to the
normal display.
11.
Press [START].
The metronome will begin sounding, and the tempo
indicator will light in time with the count.
12.
Press [REC] to make the REC indicator go dark. This
will select rehearsal mode.
The metronome will continue sounding, but nothing will
be recorded when you strike the pads.
Strike the pads in time with the metronome to rehearse
your pattern.
