Q: Can you chain different drum patterns together? How easy is it to switch from one drum pattern to another in real time?

Thank you for the question. It is possible to save your favourite drum patterns as a series of user programs. If you were to save the patterns in the order that you want them, you can then use the buttons to advance through them one at a time. Alternatively, you could assign a foot pedal (sold separately) to advance through the saved user pedals so you can keep your hands free for playing.

Q: What dose the cd-rom style converter 4.0 do

Print the user manual from the disc. The software can be used to change a standard midi file (.smf) into a rhythm. It's complicated because the rhythm needs four variations, plus three up-changes, three down changes, four beginnings, and four endings. Watch YouTube video rowland bk5 big in Japan to see how a style sets the rhythms, one touch buttons, and instruments. Easy? It is not!

Q: Can you use a foot switch

Yes you can use two footswitches. One for sustain and the other to switch between settings i.e. putting drum fills in etc. Having been a pro keyboard player for 35 years I can definitely recommend it. The manual can be frustrating but the end result is well worth it. A keyboard for all levels of ability.
