SEQUENCER SECTION
MAKING A PATTERN
Each pattern has 8 steps, and each step has 3 components: envelope
gate, slide gate, and oscillator pitch.
To edit envelope gates, press the GATE buttons to turn them on/off.
To edit slide gates, hold the SLIDE button and press the GATE buttons
to activate/deactivate slide on that step.
To change the rate of the slides, hold SLIDE and press UP/DOWN: 1 =
no slide, 8 = longest slide. If you set the slide rate to 1 (no slide), you
can use the SLIDE GATE output to modulate whatever you like without
introducing the sliding pitch effect.
There are two ways of adjusting the oscillator pitch stored in the
sequencer: RECORD and STEP EDIT.
RECORD
Start the sequencer (press PLAY). The steps of the pattern will flash in
order to indicate that the sequence is running.
To RECORD, hold SLIDE and PATTERN, and move the PITCH fader.
While holding RECORD the pitch of the oscillator during each step of the
pattern is being saved. Recording stops when RECORD is released and
the sequence will begin to loop. NOTE! The duration of a recorded loop
is 8 steps long by default. Longer recordings can be made by chaining
multiple patterns together and then holding RECORD as they play back.
When recording stops, the PITCH and MOD faders freeze to ensure
accurate playback. The two LEDs between PITCH and MOD will turn off
to indicate that the controls are frozen. To reactivate the faders, you either
need to move them quickly or hit their initial position (for PITCH, it's the
middle position, and for MOD, the lowest), and their lights will come on.
Once the sequence is playing, the PITCH fader acts as a transpose, and
the MOD fader still adds modulation to the sequence.
If the PITCH MOD fader was engaged during recording, it would also
record the modulation of the pitch sequence and then loop it.
STEP EDIT MODE
Stop the sequencer and hit RECORD (PATTERN+SLIDE) to enter the
