NOTES
▌ APPLYING RANDOMISATION TO A PARAMETER
1. Select the pattern and track.
2. To view the random page, Hold or double tap (RANDOM).
3. To view the random state. Keep holding (RANDOM) + Press (Knob).
Where Knob is one of the available random selectable parameters.
4. Apply an amount of randomisation to a parameter , i.e. one of the
available random selectable parameters.
• Keep holding (RANDOM) + Press (Knob) + Press [VBx]. The option
is bi-polar and can be adjusted +100% [VB16] and -100% [VB9].
Note double tap (RANDOM) to keep this option selected and then
press (Knob) + [VBx] to change the setting. Quick method which will
also visualise state.
• Keep holding (RANDOM) + Turn (Knob). The option is bi-polar and
can be adjusted +100% Clockwise and -100% Counter-clockwise.
• Keep holding (RANDOM) + Press & Turn (Knob). The option is bi-
polar and can be adjusted +100% Clockwise and -100% Counter-
clockwise. Slower but will also visualise the state.
5. The Phase can be changed to ‘slide’ forward or backward the random
sequence for the parameter to create even more variation. Hold
(RANDOM) + Press (Knob) + Press [VB8] or [VB16] to iterate the phase
shift one step each press.
6. The sequence shape can be slewed for a smoother pattern. Hold
[CTRL] + (RANDOM) + turn (Knob) to apply slew.
7. Repeats steps 3-5 for other parameters to build more movement and
interest into the sequence.
Each parameter has a modulation sequence lane to manage the randomisation
variation. This can be phase shifted for more interest. Each press of [VB8] will phase
shift steps earlier, [VB16] will phase shift steps later. In addition a slewed ,smoothing
feature can be applied to the sequence shape.
