For example, if the Length Button and and the button at step 12 is pressed, the
pattern will be 12 steps long; after running through the first 12 steps, the
pattern will repeat. The pattern length will stay the same even after changing
to another mode. The unplayed steps after the last step remain in memory.
Pattern Length Programming is the same as in Pattern Tap Write Mode!
Scale Programming (Pattern Step Write Mode)
One of 4 possible scales can be selected for a pattern with the Scale Button.
The LED of the scale indicates which scale has been selected.
The lowest Scale-LED corresponds to 4/4 time signature.
Scale Programming is the same as in Tap Write Mode!
Shuffle Programming (Pattern Tap Write Mode)
Shuffle can only be adjusted if 4/4 time signature is selected (i.e. the
lowest LED is illuminated).
The Robokop has two kinds of Shuffle:
-
The first kind of shuffle delays the even numbered steps (2, 4, 6, ...).
This is similar to the common shuffle found on the 909.
- The second kind of shuffle delays steps 3, 7, 11 and 15. This second
kind of shuffle is similar to the one on the CR-8000.
