NOTES

7.3 Number of Cycles

Cycles will play in order. Each parameter set will play its edited values. This
helps to create arrangements and progressions. The default starting point
is 4 cycles, but up to 16 per track are selectable and a minimum of one
cycle is possible.

▌ CHANGING NUMBER OF ACTIVE CYCLES

1. Select the pattern and track.

2. To view the cycle page, Hold or double tap (CYCLES).

3. Number of cycles can be changed in or out of edit mode.

4. To set the number of active cycles, Hold [CTRL] + (CYCLES) + [VBx]

where ‘x’ refers to the number of cycles to select.

5. To increase the number of active cycles, Hold [CTRL] + Turn (CYCLES)

Clockwise. The additional cycles, up to 16, will illuminate.

6. To reduce the number of active cycles, Hold [CTRL] + Turn (CYCLES)

Counter-clockwise. One cycle is the minimum.

7. Changing the number of cycles, deactivates or activates cycles,

meaning any edits still exist even when a cycle is set inactive ie when
decreasing cycles. This can be restored when the cycle is made active
again i.e. when increasing cycles.
