creating Drum patterns on Radias
I have the manual,can you explain the steps to creating drum patterns,I can't seem to figure it out,I can do step sequences with the sounds,but not drums,how do I assign the drums to step sequencer 1,or 2...thx

Hold EXIT/NO and press timbre select button 4 (to turn timbre 4 on)
Hit EDIT/YES then hit the COMMON button until you're at the DRUM page.
Turn the wheel till the setting for DrumTmbr = Timbre4.
Cursor down to choose between drum kits.
To sequence, get out of edit mode, select timbre 4, hit step seqencer ON button, then select step seq 1. Then use STEP REC to edit the individual steps for the sequencer.
On top of that there are all kinds of things you can do, like linking sequencers 1 & 2 to make one long (64-step) sequence. Add compression or other effects for coolness.
Once you have a good sequence, set Timbre 4 to use a MIDI channel other than GLOBAL. That way you won't trigger the drum sounds when you play in the range used by the kit.
That's the only freebie you'll get from me; RTFM

not to sound condescending, but if you don't understand sequencers and you bought a radias... you're gonna have to do some serious homework, dude!
however, one thing i didn't realize was very powerful were the modulation sequencers. the radias only has two sequences it can store per program, but with the modulation sequencer, you can do some pretty BA stuff with keys. so once you run out of sequencers, there's that to rely on (it helped me a ton when i gained solid control of its use/possibilites.)
