Akai XR20 Reference Manual - V1.1 - Produktinfo.conrad.com

PAGE 11 / MANUAL DRUMSET OVERRIDE (SET MODE)
Each Pattern has an associated, assigned Drum Set. However, you can tell the XR20 to ignore
these stored assignments, and retain the currently selected Drum Set regardless of whether or
not you change Patterns. This is useful if you want to hear how a Pattern would sound with a
different Drum Set (just set one up manually) as opposed to the one stored with the Pattern.
Use the INC/DEC buttons or the VALUE dial to select
PATT (each Pattern uses its assigned Drum Set) or
MANUAL (the XR20 will retain the currently selected
drum assignments regardless of which Pattern is
chosen).
Note: If changing Patterns doesn't call up
different Drum Sets, this parameter is
probably set to MANUAL instead of PATT.
Page 12 / LEDs (LEDS OFF)
On this page you can specify whether the LEDs on the
XR20 will be lit, or turned off to preserve battery life.
Use the INC / DEC buttons or the VALUE dial and select
OFF to turn off the LEDs.
Select ON to turn on the LEDs.
Page 13 / BACKLIGHT BRIGHTNESS (BACKLITE)
On this page, you can adjust the brightness of the
display. Note that lower brightness settings will help
preserve battery life.
Use the INC / DEC buttons or the VALUE dial to adjust
the brightness setting (OFF, 1-9 or FULL for maximum
brightness).
Page 14 / BATTERY LEVEL (BATT LVL)
