Creating original drum kits
(Tone Load)
With the BR-864, you can create original drum kits not only
with the internal drum sounds, but by loading drum sounds
from external sources as well.
There are three ways to load drum tones.
Loading from the tracks
Loading from other drum kits
Loading from WAV/AIFF files
* For instructions on this procedure, refer to “Section 6 USB”
(p. 155).
You can load drum sounds of up to 13 seconds for a
single drum kit.
(Example)
Kick: 3 seconds, snare: 3 seconds, crash cymbal: 7 seconds
Total 13 seconds
Loading from the tracks
This loads sounds recorded to the tracks as drum tones.
It can be convenient to use the “scrub,” “punch in,” and
“locator” functions to set the range containing the drum
sounds you want to load ahead of time.
You can use the scrub function to repeat playback and locate
the point from which loading is to start (the start point) and
press AUTO PUNCH [IN], then after determining the point
at which loading is to finish (the end point), press
[LOCATOR] to register the range to be loaded.
Using this technique of setting the start point with AUTO
PUNCH [IN] and the end point with [LOCATOR] allows you
to set the range to be loaded very rapidly.
1. Press [TONE LOAD].

2. Press CURSOR [ ] to move the cursor to “TRACK,”
and press [ENTER].

3. Use CURSOR [ ] [ ] and the TIME/VALUE dial to
select the track and V-Track to which the drum sounds
are to be loaded, then press [ENTER].
fig.03-507d
4. Use [CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to specify
the range (start and end points) of drum sounds to be
loaded in terms of measures or time locations.
* You cannot specify an interval between the start and end
points or a length of time in less than 100 ms or excess of 13
seconds.
* When specifying measures, the result is reflected in the time
display, and vice versa.
