Lock
This locks the Pad lane so that no new Pattern data can be
loaded onto it, in all Engines. It is the same lock function as in
the Pad Edit view: it also prevents any samples being loaded
onto the Pad. You can also [ALT]-click the Lock button in order
to lock all other Pad types – in other words, [ALT]-click on a
Kick Pad layer to lock all Snare, Hihat and Perc Pads on all
Engines.
Pad edit toggle
This button takes you directly to the Pad edit view for the cor-
responding Pad.
Move left/right
These buttons shift the Pad’s Pattern events 1 step to the left
or right. If you hold down [ALT] while clicking, all events on all
Pad lanes of the current Pattern will be moved.
5:2 Other Pattern operations
Undo button
The Undo button in GURU’s Sequencer Master section is used
for a single-level Undo for Patterns: you can always Undo the
last operation when editing Pattern event data.
It is not a multi-level undo – you can only Undo the last opera-
tion. The Undo button will be highlighted when there is some-
thing to undo. There is also no ‘Redo’ function.
Pattern keys
The Pattern keys are used for selecting the current Pattern in
the Engine: in other words, the Pattern displayed in the GURU
LCD in Pattern view. This is very significant, because
the cur-
rent Pattern is the currently-playing Pattern.
The Pattern keys can be used by clicking them with the
mouse, or by playing them using a MIDI controller (notes C3
to B4).
