TURNING THE CHASE FUNCTION ON AND OFF - The Chase function
determines which drum kit will play a pattern. When the Chase function is on, the
drum kit used to record the pattern will automatically be selected for the
pattern playback. When the Chase function is off, the currently selected drum
kit will
be used for playback of all patterns. The Chase setting, which is set to "ON" when the
RY8 is shipped, affects the entire system. Hold [MODE] and
press [PAGE+]
once or more to access the Chase function. The word
"CHASE" will appear in the lower left area of the LCD. Press [+1] to turn the
Chase function on. When Chase is turned on, the word "CHASE" will appear
in the upper right area of the LCD. Press [-1] to turn the Chase function off.
13. EXTERNAL IN MODE
The RY8 features a special [EXT IN] input jack that lets you connect a guitar
directly to the RY8 and play along with the patterns and songs, use the RY8 as
a guitar tuner, or use the RY8 as a guitar synthesizer by "triggering" any of the
50 AWM normal voices (including acoustic piano, strings, brass, synth pad
sounds, etc.), and more. (For details about connecting a guitar, see page 16.)
So the amount of music that can come from the RY8 at one time is the drums,
bass and two chord parts from the patterns/songs, plus a guitar signal and the
synthesized External In voice.
In External In Mode you can turn the Mix function on and off, specify the
External In voice and guitar synthesizer status, activate the guitar tuner, assign
the trigger sensitivity level for the External In voice, and turn the remote Start
function on and off.
