Saving Select Drum Patterns (only).

Hello- I am trying to "save" ONLY the drumbeat patterns I have isolated by deleting all the other insturments on any given setting.  Example:  # 011: Rock Shuffle. How do I Save each  "drum patten" (so I can use it like a drum machine) for future use? Thank you for your help!  I am an "oldster" (67 next month!) that missed the 'tech' revolution.   This machine was GIVEN to me- with the manuals- but I can't find any info on how to 'save' anything OR a "Save" button on the machine Anywhere.  Thank you.  Wayne Ceballos.
