Let’s Play a Style

There are two ways to perform Styles, using “Manual mode,” in
which you switch the Pattern yourself, or “Auto mode,” where
the DR-3 switches Patterns automatically.
Now, try performing in Manual mode.

Performing Styles with Selecting Patterns ([MANU])

Each Style includes eight prepared rhythm patterns; intro, fill-in
A, verse A, fill-in B, verse B, fill-in C, verse C and ending.
In Manual mode, you play switching Patterns yourself.
