is made, the pattern will play infinitely and the next pattern will thus not be cued. But if CHNG
for instance is set to 64, the pattern will behave like a pattern consisting of 64 steps in terms of
cueing and chaining.
MASTER SCALE is the rightmost setting. It sets the general time signature of the pattern.
• If INF is selected the active pattern will play infinitely, making it impossible to change to another
pattern (when SEQUENTIAL pattern play mode is used).
• Press [FUNCTION] + [UP]/[DOWN] to set the MASTER LENGTH in increments of 16.
SEQUENCER FEATURES
PARAMETER LOCKS
Parameter locks enable all trigs to have their own unique parameter values. The note trigs of a drum track can
have, for example, different pitch, amp or filter settings. All parameters found on the PARAMETER pages are
possible to parameter lock and parameter locks can be applied to all types of tracks. Additionally, all settings on
the TRIG page may be locked (see “TRIG MENU” on page 37). For a complete overview of all parameters on
the PARAMETER pages, check out “Appendix A: DRUM TRACK PARAMETERS“.
To apply parameter locks in GRID RECORDING mode, press and hold the [TRIG] key of a trig. Adjust the
parameters you want to lock using the DATA ENTRY knobs. The graphics in LCD will become inverted for the
locked parameter and the locked parameter value will be displayed. The <TRIG> LED of the locked trig will
begin to flash rapidly, indicating the trig now contains a parameter lock. Remove a single parameter lock by
holding [TRIG] + pressing the DATA ENTRY knob of the locked parameter. By removing a note trig and entering
it again, all parameter locks will be erased from the trig.
In CHROMATIC mode, a note pitch parameter lock will be shown with a red color pad when you press and hold
the [TRIG] key containing such a lock.
In LIVE RECORDING mode, turning a DATA ENTRY knob, or playing the [PADS] in CHROMATIC mode, will
input parameter locks to the active track. Note trigs will be locked accordingly and trigless locks containing the
locks will be placed on the sequencer steps not containing note trigs.
To remove the parameter locks of all tracks while LIVE RECORDING mode is active, press and hold [FUNC-
TION] + [NO/RELOAD]. Sound locks will, however, not be erased.
Press [NO/RELOAD] + one (or several) of the [PADS] in order to erase a sequence of recorded trigs on a spe-
cific track (or on several tracks) in time with the sequencer, i.e. all steps reached on the pattern playing will be
erased, until the keys are released. Sound locks will not be erased.
Remove specific parameter locks in real time by pressing [NO/RELOAD] while pressing the DATA ENTRY knob
corresponding to the parameter that will be removed.
• Up to 72 different parameters can be locked in a pattern. A parameter counts as one (1) locked
parameter no matter how many trigs that lock it. If for example the cutoff parameter of the filter is
locked on every sequencer step, there are still 71 other parameters that can be locked.
SOUND LOCKS
All drum Sounds in the Sound pool of the active project can be changed per sequencer step. Press and hold a
note trig and turn the LEVEL knob. The Sound pool list will appear. Scroll the list using the LEVEL knob, select
