NOTES

Rotate

The start point in a Euclidean pattern can be rotated. While this is ok for
adjusting a fixed patterns start, it is even more interesting as a performance
option by making adjustments on-the-fly.

Note that changing the start using the (ROTATE) function will effectively
play as if both Euclidean and manual pulses are shifted in the track.

▌ ADJUSTING START OF A EUCLIDEAN PATTERN - ROTATE

1. Press [BANK] to ensure the ‘home’ mode is in focus.

2. Select an existing track to edit. Press [VBx], where ‘x’ is the value

button that represents the desired track. Example, Press [VB1] to select
Track 1 for editing.

3. Optionally view the pulse sequence. Double tap (PULSES) to retain the

pulse sequence view even when the control knob is released.

4. To rotate the start point. Press [CTRL] + Turn (ROTATE). Each rotation

click clockwise will shift the entire track pattern one step later. Each
rotation click anti-clockwise will shift by one step earlier. When rotating,
a pulse at the start will wrap around to the end or a pulse at the end will
wrap around to the start depending on direction of rotation.
