1 The QY22: What It Is & What It Can Do

What It Can Do …

Here are a few ideas on how you can use the QY22. There’s no way we can cover all pos-

sibilities, but the ideas presented might help to spark some new and interesting applications.

Create accompaniments that you can practice with on your guitar,

keyboard, or any other instrument (vocals too, of course). That way

you have the advantage of practicing with a bass line and chords in-

stead of just a metronome or drum machine (➪ page 52).

Use the drum kit voices to record on the sequencer tracks, or record

drum-only patterns in the PATTERN mode that you can later string

together in the SONG mode. You can also use the drum tracks from

the preset patterns (➪ page 75).
