| Step 1: |
Choose a Rex Pattern that is in the tempo of your song.
The Rex Patterns are organized by style, instrument category, time signature, tempo, and library number. Each pattern is recorded and "Rexed" at three different tempos. They are stored in the tempo directories respectively (50, 80, and 120). This is done to give you an excellent sound at almost any tempo. |

| Step 2: |
Load the Rex Pattern Series file into the Dr:rex Device
|

|
|
Choose a pattern that is lower than or equal to the tempo of your song. (If your song is at 86-bpm then choose a pattern from the number 80 directory.) |
|
 |
| Step 3: |
(optional) Setup the Dr:rex Device.
In order to hear the Rex Pattern as it was originaly recorded you must turn off the Filter. (When you click the little red light it should turn off and show a grey button instead. Red button=On, Grey button=Off) |

Press the "To Track" Button on the Rex Device.
