to return to the Select

Pattern display, if you do NOT wish to clear the Pattern).

Press +1 YES to clear the selected Pattern (or press –1 NO to cancel this operation).

2.5 CLEAR ALL PATTERNS

You can instantly clear (erase) all 100 Patterns. This would be done, for example, if the

RX17’s Pattern memory were full and you wanted to write more Patterns. Use operation

4.1 to save the Patterns on tape before this operation, if you wish to preserve the Patterns

for later use. You can also save Patterns via MIDI, by using a MIDI data storage device

such as the Yamaha MDF-1 MIDI Data Filer (see operation 5.7).

1. Press PATTERN and select Function 5.

Press

+1 YES

to continue this operation (or press PATTERN to return to the Select

Pattern display, if you do NOT wish to clear all Patterns).

3. Press +1 YES to clear all Patterns (or press –1 NO to cancel this operation and

return to the Select Pattern display). The LCD will show

then return to the Select Pattern display.

2.6 COPY PATTERN

The Pattern Copy function lets you copy any selected Pattern to another destination in

the RX17’s Pattern memory. This is useful if you want to copy a Pattern in order to alter

it to create a new Pattern, while retaining the original Pattern. It is also useful if you want

to have the Patterns in a particular order in the RX17’s memory (so that, for example,

you can easily play one Pattern followed by the adjacent Pattern, by pressing +1 YES

during play).

1. After selecting the Pattern you wish to copy, select Function 6.

Use the Numeric Key Pad to enter the number of the Pattern destination to which the

selected Pattern will be copied.

3. Press +1 YES.

You can now cancel this operation by pressing –1 NO, if you do NOT wish to copy

to the selected destination (if, for example, it already contains data). The LCD will

return to the Select Pattern display.

4. To copy the Pattern, press +1 YES. The LCD will show

1 2 ... 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 ... 46 47
