I registered just to answer your Q:

Download the user manual (pdf from Roland, google roland sp 555 pdf)
http://www.roland.com/products/en/_supp ... UCT=SP-555
Print it out (80 pages inc. index and other none critical bumf), Read it.

It's obvious you like many in shear excitement did not bother reading the manual, you should, you will thank me, it's like a bible of how toos...

I recommend printing the manual as it's easier to make notes/ highlight important info and generally condense the manual to some 20 pages of really important reminders.

The PATTERN SEQUENCER INFO starts on page 33 of the manual.
