Pitch, Level, Attack, and Decay values can be set individually for each instrument key. |
| Pattern Recording | | Up to 100 rhythm patterns with time signatures ranging from 01/32 to 99/2 can be recorded using either the Real Time Write or Step Write modes. Real Time Write allows the RX5's keys to be played while listening to a click guide, over dubbing drums in any order. Performance can be corrected to the nearest 1/2 to 1/48 note. The Step Write mode produces accurate recording from a score or the creation of patterns that would be difficult to play live, by inputting single notes. |
| Pattern Editing | | After selecting a note, the Edit Pattern function alters a note by changing its Pitch. Level, Reverse, Attack and Decay over an extremely wide range. The Change Voice function allows instant change in any selected voice pattern. |
| Songs and Chains | | To form a song, patterns can be joined together and given initial temp settings. Songs can be combined to form chains, providing the drum programs for an entire performance. |
