5. PROJECTS

There are many independent features for each sequencer. But a Project is where you will

find parameters that affect all three sequencers at the same time.

The internal memory of the BeatStep Pro holds a total of 16 Projects. You could think of a

Project as a single song (although it could be an entire performance). Each one contains:

• 16 patterns for each of the three sequencers (SEQ1, SEQ2 and DRUM), including

all of the Swing, Randomness and Probability settings for each pattern

• A Control Mode preset (i.e., a controller map), with independent settings for each

assignable control

• 16

Scenes [p.82]

(these are only active when Scene Mode has been enabled using

the

MIDI Control Center [p.84]

• Project-level settings for Tempo, Swing, Randomness and Probability.

See the

Sync [p.121]

section of the

MIDI Control Center [p.84]

chapter for information about

other parameters that affect the way Projects respond when you switch from one Project to

the next.

5.1. Loading a Project

To load a Project, hold the PROJECT button and press the Step button that corresponds to

the number of the Project you want to load. Be sure you have saved your current Project

somewhere before you do this!

Projects can also be loading during performance while the sequences are running.

: The

MIDI Control Center [p.84]

has a parameter that allows you to specify whether the new Project

should be loaded instantly or wait until after the Drum sequencer reaches the end of its current pattern.
See the

Wait to Load Project [p.121]

section to learn about this feature.
