Creating rhythm arrangements
Section 4

Naming and saving rhythm
arrangements
The following section describes how to name and save the
rhythm arrangements that you create.
Unless the song is saved, all rhythm arrangement data
will be lost when a different rhythm arrangement is
selected or a new song is loaded. In addition, this data
will also be lost if you turn off the BR-1200CD before
saving your data. It is a good idea, therefore, to regularly
save rhythm arrangements that you intend to use again.
1. Press PROGRAMMABLE RHYTHM [ARRANGEMENT/
PATTERN] so the ARRANGEMENT indicator is lighted.

arrangement data. You will not be able to select a preset
rhythm arrangement at this time.
9. Press [F3] (GO).
The rhythm arrangement will be saved. When the
message “Complete!” appears, it indicates that saving
has been completed.
