Copy/Erase

The [INSERT/COPY] key LED flashes and the current pattern is
selected as the copy source.

Only user patterns can be selected as copy target.

The copy source can be a user pattern or preset pattern. However,
an empty user pattern (display shows "E") cannot be selected as
copy source.

When copying is completed, the unit returns to the pattern mode
with the copy target pattern being selected.
If copying was cancelled, the unit returns to the pattern mode with
the copy source pattern being selected.

Pattern Copy/Erase

This section explains how to copy or erase a pattern.

The patterns in the RT-123 (preset patterns or user patterns) can be copied to a different user pattern

number. This is useful for example when wishing to change only a part of a pattern, such as changing the

bass track phrasing while keeping the drum track.

Copy source pattern number

Use the [VALUE +/-] keys to select a user pattern (U01 - U99) as copy target.

• When the copy source is a user pattern, the same pattern will be

preselected after step 2. However, it is not possible to actually
copy from a pattern to the same pattern.

• When the copy source is a preset pattern, the same number in

the user bank will be preselected after step 2.

NOTE

When the copy is executed, the existing contents of the pattern
selected as copy target will be erased. Make sure that the pattern
you have selected is one that you don't mind erasing.
