How to Use This Manual

We're sure you'd like to jump in and start using your Micron
quickly. To help you do this, refer to Chapter 1 for hook-up
instructions, and then read Chapter 2 – "First Session." This will
get you playing in no time. If you have any questions, refer to the
Frequently Asked Questions in Appendix A on page 101.
Chapters 3 through 6 cover the main operating modes of the
Micron – the patterns, rhtyhms, setups, and programs.
For information on using the Micron along with other MIDI
devices, refer to Chapter 8 "MIDI."
Near the end of the manual are troubleshooting tips and
specifications.
The names for all buttons, knobs, and wheels on the Micron are
