Saving Patterns and Pattern Sets

• To save the current Pattern, navigate to the folder to which
you wish to save the Pattern. Then, click the Save Pattern but-
ton on the right hand side of the Patterns Browser and enter a
filename into the dialog box which appears.

• To save all the Patterns in the current Engine, navigate to the
folder to which you wish to save the Patterns as a Set. Then,
click the Save Pattern Set button and enter a filename.

2:5 Kits tab

This tab of the browser is where you load and save Kits.
When a Kit is saved, by using the Save Kit button on the Kits
Browser, all the following are saved to a

.KIT file:

• the Pads
• their Pad Edit settings including Pad insert FX and Aux sends
• the Engine’s Aux FX
• the Engine insert effect as deployed in the Mix view

Auto mode applies to Kits in the same way as Patterns: if Guru
is playing, and Auto mode is enabled, any Kit selected in the
Browser will begin previewing in context. As usual, you can:

• Click

to load it

• Click another Kit or browse through the folder’s Kits with the

buttons

• Stop previewing with the

button – no Kit will be loaded

and the contents of the Pads will not be changed.

When not in Auto mode, simply drag and drop a Kit onto the
MIDI Pads area in order to load it.

Like loops in the Loop tab, Kits can be expanded, by clicking
the button to the left of the filename, to show all the constitu-
ent Pads in the Kit. Any of these can be dragged onto one of
Guru’s Pads. Please note that the Engine Aux FX setup and
the Engine insert effect will not be recalled when dragging
individual Pads from a Kit in this way.
