Pattern and Song
A “pattern” consists of a rhythm track containing various drum voices and a backing track containing the
chords and bass line which accompanies the rhythm. The rhythm pattern is displayed on the LCD in 4 parts:
KICK, SNARE, CYMBAL and MISC. (other instruments) enabling you to visually check the rhythm structure.

Your DTX contains 660 preset patterns (110 styles x 6 sections) with matching preset backings. 100 original
user patterns can be created and stored within the DTX. In the same manner as the drum kit, the patterns
can also be played back in a specified order using the chain function.
These patterns arranged in a specific order and combind with suitable chord progression create a “song”.
Chords can be established by combining each root note with 25 chord types.
A maximum of 30 original songs can be created using preset or user patterns. You can also actualy play a
melody, obligato or drum part and store it as a song.
It is also possible to play a drum kit to a particular pattern or song.
