2.6 PAGE 6: ADD/REMOVE BEATS FROM PATTERN END (LENGTH)
This option either adds beats to, or subtracts beats from, the end of the Pattern. The Pattern
length can be set prior to, or after, recording. Shortening a Pattern's end point erases any
drum events that fall outside the remaining part of the Pattern; lengthening a Pattern's end
point adds silence at the end of a Pattern. It is also important to note that changing a
Pattern's length also changes the length of the associated Fill Pattern.

The display says ### BEAT and LENGTH. This indicates a Pattern's length in beats
(quarter notes). Enter the desired length with the INC/DEC or number buttons (this must be a
three digit number; enter leading zeroes if necessary). To prevent accidental length
alteration, you must press PLAY before the SR-16 will store the new Pattern length. The
display shows CHANGED LENGTH for as long as PLAY is pressed.
Background Odd time signatures are not a problem since Patterns can be any number of beats (up to 128).
Example: For a measure of 13/4 followed by a measure of 5/4, program a 13-beat Pattern and a 5-beat Pattern.
2.7 PAGE 7: ADD/REMOVE BEATS FROM PATTERN BEGINNING (➔START)
This option either adds beats to, or subtracts beats from, the beginning of the Pattern. The
Pattern length can be set prior to, or after, recording. Shortening a Pattern's start point erases
any drum events that fall outside the remaining part of the Pattern; lengthening a Pattern's
start point adds silence at the beginning of a Pattern.
