PATTERN MENU

In the PATTERN menu patterns can be saved and reloaded. Open the menu by pressing [FUNCTION] +
[SCENE]. Select between the available commands by using the [UP]/[DOWN] arrow keys. Confirm selections
with [YES/SAVE].

RELOAD PATTERN will reload the active pattern. It will either be reloaded to its original auto-
saved state or to a specific saved state which can be determined by utilizing the SAVE PAT-
TERN
command. Press [NO/RELOAD] + [SCENE] for a shortcut to the RELOAD PATTERN
command.

SAVE PATTERN will save changes made to the active pattern. This is a special feature avail-
able in addition to the general, automatic, saving of patterns which occurs when patterns are
changed. The feature is useful in situations where a pattern is being worked on, the results are
desirable and you want to keep on working with the pattern while having the ability to revert to
a specific saved state. The SAVE PATTERN command makes this possible. When reloading
the pattern, it will not be reloaded to its original, auto-saved, state, but to the manually saved
state. Press [YES/SAVE] + [SCENE] for a shortcut to the SAVE PATTERN command.

The RELOAD PATTERN command is great when improvising live. Any changes made to the active
pattern, like adding bass line notes or similar, can immediately be undone.

TRIG MENU

Set the actions for when a note is trigged in the TRIG menu. Press the [TRIG SETUP] key to access the menu.
Change settings using the DATA ENTRY knobs. These general settings affect note trigs placed on the
sequencer. On any step of the pattern, trigs may be locked to other settings by first pressing and holding a
[TRIG] key, then changing the settings. Note that the TRIG settings are stored along with the active pattern, not
to the active kit.

NOT sets the pitch of the note when trigged, ranging from -24 to 24. When LIVE RECORDING
and playing in CHROMATIC mode, the pitch of the [PADS] played will override this setting.

VEL sets the velocity at which the note trig on the sequencer is trigged, 1 to 127. In LIVE
RECORDING mode, the velocity at which the [PADS] are tapped will override this setting.
This velocity is used when trigging with [FUNCTION] + [PADS] or with the [TRIG] keys.

LEN sets the length of the note trig. Again, in LIVE RECORDING mode, the duration of press-
ing the [PADS] overrides this general setting.

SYN controls if the synth part of the Sound will be trigged.

SMP controls if the sample part of the sound will be trigged.
