Control Mode lets you adjust various parameters affecting the knobs, faders, and
assignable buttons. Press the Control Button (Ctrl) to enter or exit this mode. When in
Control Mode, the button will light up and Knobs, Faders, Buttons, or Advanced will
appear in the display, depending on what page you are viewing. In Control Mode, you
can:
set each knob's, fader's, and assignable button's MIDI CC number, minimum value,
and maximum value (in each bank)
set each assignable button's behavior (in each bank): momentary, toggle, or single-
press
set each assignable button's "on" and "off" colors (in each bank)
set each bank of knobs, faders, or assignable buttons to communicate with your
software using standard MIDI, Mackie Control, or HUI protocols or to communicate
with Arsenal.
edit other functions related to the knobs, faders, and assignable buttons as well as
the transport controls and DAW Control buttons
Sequence Mode lets you adjust various parameters affecting the Sequencer's overall
function. Press the Sequence Button (Seq) to enter or exit this mode. When in Sequence
Mode, the button will light up and Sequencer will appear in the display. In Sequence
Mode, you can:
select a new Sequence
set the number of steps and bars in a Sequence
edit the velocity of each pad (in each bank) for each step in a Sequence
press a pad to see its steps (in the currently shown bar) represented by the lit-up
Step Switches
enter steps in a Sequence with specific and editable velocities for each pad
erase all steps for a specific pad in a Sequence
erase an entire Sequence
disable the Sequencer (so the transport controls communicate with your DAW only
rather than with the Sequencer)
Select Mode lets you use the Step Switches to view or edit settings that affect the
current Sequence (rather than the Sequencer's overall function). Press and hold the
Select Button to enter this mode. When in Select Mode, the button will light up and
Select Mode will appear in the display. In Select Mode, you can:
press a pad and then release the Select Button to see its steps (in the currently
shown bar) represented by the lit-up Step Switches (the same as pressing a pad in
Sequence Mode)
set which bar of the Sequence will be shown in the Step Switches. Press Step
Switch 1, 2, 3, or 4 to view the bar of that number, or press Step Switch 5 (Auto) if
you always want the currently playing bar to be shown.
copy and paste a pad's step pattern from one bar to another. Use Step Switches 7
(Copy) and 8 (Paste) to do this—please see the User Guide to learn about this
feature.
duplicate a pad's sound and step pattern immediately to the next bar. (You can do
this multiple successive times to quickly copy the same pattern to multiple bars.)
Use Step Switch 9 (Duplicate) to do this—please see the User Guide to learn about
this feature.
set the Time Division of the Sequence and Pad Roll Mode. Use Step Switches 12-
16 to select a quarter-note (1/4), eighth-note (1/8), sixteenth-note (1/16), or thirty-
second-note (1/32) Time Division. You can use a triplet-based Time Division by
pressing Step Switch 16 (Triplet).
Important: The Time Division setting affects both Sequence playback and Pad Roll
Mode. In other words, the rate of a pad roll will always correspond to the
Sequence's Time Division.
Again, please download the complete User Guide from m-audio.com/TFP for a more complete
explanation of how to use all of Trigger Finger Pro's features!
