Custom Rhythm prepare & import
you can create Rhythms for RC in multiple ways
((but remember: first you have to import them as a regular phrase in to RC))
-use your DAW & Record / Draw your rhythm patterns there and export as midi file to import to RC
-use your DAW & collect rhythm patterns from existing midi files and export as midi then import to RC
---you can use two ways when importing that patterns in to RC---
say we have 4 bars long a few rhythm patterns to import to RC
1- in your DAW put all midi patterns in a single track in order and export as midi file
adjust RC Midi import settings for RC automatically splits that patterns for you,
2- if DAW capable to do this ..
export every rhythm pattern as a single midi file
copy that midi files in to your "Custom Phrases" folder
(they must be in the Root of this folder .. do not put them in any folder)
this is "Batch Import"
in the RC go to "Settings / Locations"
see there "Convert MIDI Files To Phrases"
give a "Group:" name
tick or do not tick the "Convert To Relative Notes" because its not important in this -Rhythm import- case
press to "Convert MIDI Files To Phrases" button and let the RC finish the task..
THEN:
----this part / procedure is same for both 1&2 import methods---
open Phrase Browser and Rhythm Browser side by side
locate the rhythm phrases you just saved
drag and drop them to the Rhythm Browser one by one fill the Name and Group pop up window ..
Done!
EDIT:
as a plus
also you can drag&drop your existing phrases
(polyphonic or monophonic .. but i would use monophonic phrases for this)
from Phrase Browser to the Rhythm Browser to save rhythms from them.
here is the step one step two vid.
