The RT-123 switches to pattern mode and the number of the

currently selected pattern is shown on the display. A01 - A99, B01 -

B99, C01 - C99 indicates a preset pattern, and U01 - U99 a user

pattern. If an empty user pattern was selected, the display shows

"E" (Empty).

In pattern mode, the [VALUE +/-] keys serve to switch the pattern.

The [PLAY] key LED lights up, and the pattern is played repeatedly.

The [TEMPO] key LED flashes according to the tempo of the

pattern. The display shows the current position in the pattern

(measure/beat).

The LED of the key lights up and only the drum tracks A/B are

heard. To turn the bass track back on, press the [BASS MUTE] key

once more.

Pressing the [PLAY] key instead of the [STOP/EXIT] key sets the

unit to pause mode. The [PLAY] key LED flashes. Pressing the

[PLAY] key again in this condition resumes playback from the point

where it was paused.
