ABSTRACT:
An automatic rhythm system for an electronic organ adapted to enable a plurality of percussive instruments and a plurality of accompaniment and "Walking Bass" instruments normally played by the pedals of the organ includes two separate rhythm pattern generators each storing a plurality of rhythm patterns, the outputs from one of which enables selected percussive instruments and the outputs from the other enabling little used percussive instruments and the "Walking Bass" normally played by the pedals. A plurality of rhythm select switches are directly connected to respective input terminals of the first rhythm pattern generator, and to ensure against generation of musically unacceptable combinations of rhythm patterns when a combination of rhythm patterns is selected, the rhythm select switches are connected through control logic to the second rhythm pattern generator, the control causing the second rhythm pattern generator to play only the first turned on rhythm pattern of a combination of patterns. That is, the sequence in which the rhythm patterns of a combination are turned on determines which singular pedal pattern will play with that combination of rhythm patterns.
