About the drum kits
A drum kit is a variety of rhythm instrument sounds
collected in a single set; the BR-864 includes nine internal
“preset drum kits.”
In addition, you can also put together an additional five
original “song drum kits.”
Song drum kits are saved to individual songs on memory
cards.
The drum kit instrument sounds are used in the performance
of the arrangements and patterns.
