Detailed Settings for Each Function ([EDIT] Button)
The RD-700GX features internal drum patterns complementing
Jazz, Rock, and other various musical genres. This kind of
drum pattern is called a “Rhythm.”
Adjusting the Tempo (Tempo)
Specify the tempo of the Rhythm.
The RD-700GX has only one tempo setting. Once
you change the setting, the tempo indicated in the
Tone screen and the tempo setting for the song
and arpeggiator (p. 131) both change.
The way Rhythm is played and the tempo display
may differ with some Rhythm Patterns.
With Clock Source (p. 109) set to “EXT,” “E:”
appears in the display, and the RD-700GX is
synchronized to the tempo of the external MIDI
device. The tempo cannot be changed with the RD-
700GX when “E:” is indicated.
Adjusting the Volume
(Rhythm Volume)
Adjusts the volume of the Rhythm.
Changing Patterns (Rhythm Pattern)
This selects the Rhythm pattern. Select from 205 options.
You can also change a Rhythm’s pattern in the
“Rhythm/Arpeggio screen” (p. 57).
Changing the Drum Set (Rhythm Set)
You can change a Rhythm’s drum set (set of drum and
percussion tones).
You can select Tones other than Rhythm Sets.
When this setting is changed, the Part 10 Tone
also changes.
In addition, Rhythm Set Change is set to OFF.
Depending on the Rhythm Set that is selected, the
Rhythm Set may not play back properly.
Preventing the Drum Set from Changing
When You Switch Patterns
(Rhythm Set Change)
Each Rhythm in a Rhythm pattern has the most suitable drum
set (set of drum and percussion tones) assigned to it. When
Rhythm patterns are changed, the drum sets also switch, so the
tone is changed, but here the drum set stays constant and does
not change.
Changing the Accent Strength
(Rhythm Accent)
Modifies the strength of accents and the length of the notes to
adjust the “groove” feel of the arpeggio. A setting of 100%
will produce the most pronounced groove feel.
