DR-880: Changing the Length of a Pattern.
1. Select a desired pattern to edit.
2. Press EDIT.
3. Use Cursor < > to select "PATTERN."
4. Press ENTER.
5. Use CURSOR < > to select "INFO."
6. Press ENTER.
7. Press Cursor Down to select "MEASURES".
8. Turn the VALUE dial to choose the desired measures - (minimum value of 1).
9. Press EXIT three times and then press PLAY to hear the pattern with the new length.
Note: Increasing the length does not automatically input the drum and bass parts into the new available measures. For example, if you started with a pattern that was 4 measures long, and then increased its length to 6 measures, no sound will be heard from the two new measures (5-6).
Tip: If you would like to save the pattern with its new length, follow the steps in "Pattern Write"(Saving a Pattern) in this Help Desk.
