Inserting a rhythm pattern in a song

Move to the point you want to insert the rhythm pattern,

and perform steps 4 – 7. A new rhythm pattern is inserted

at the current location, and all subsequent patterns are

shifted back by the duration of the inserted pattern.

●

Deleting entered rhythm pattern information

Use the cursor left/right keys to move to the position of

the rhythm pattern information that you want to delete,

and press the [DELETE/ERASE] key. When rhythm

pattern information was deleted, the previous pattern will

remain valid until the point where the next rhythm pattern

information is input.

●

Deleting a speciﬁc measure

Use the cursor left/right keys to move to the start position

of the measure that you want to delete. Press the cursor

up key to bring up the indication “EV

→

” on the display,

and press the [DELETE/ERASE] key. (The conﬁrmation

“DELETE?” appears.) Press the [ENTER] key. The

measure at the current position is deleted, and subsequent

rhythm pattern information moves forward. When a

measure at the beginning of a rhythm pattern (for

example ﬁrst measure of a 2-measure pattern) is deleted,

that measure only is deleted, and the indication changes

to “ PTN” for the second measure.

Using FAST for pattern information

input

The FAST (Formula Assisted Song Translator) method

developed by ZOOM uses simple formulas to specify

rhythm pattern playback from start to end. The following

keys and pads can be used for numeric input.

The basic rules for creating a rhythm pattern sequence are

as follows.

●

Line up patterns

Use the “+” symbol to line up rhythm patterns.

For example, entering

0 + 1 + 2

will result in the

following rhythm pattern play sequence.

●

Repeat patterns

Use the “x” symbol to specify pattern repetitions. “x”

takes precedence over “+”.

For example, entering

0 + 1 x 2 + 2

will result in the

following rhythm pattern play sequence.

●

Repeat multiple patterns

Use the “(“ and “)” symbols to link a group of patterns for

repetition. Formulas enclosed in brackets take
