Duplicating a Pattern
To duplicate a Pattern select it by pressing its corresponding pad in Pattern mode, then press
Button 3 (DUPL). The Pattern will be copied to the next empty Pattern slot available.
Alternatively, you can copy a Pattern to the Pattern slot of your choice via the
button (see below).
Copy and Paste a Pattern
While the duplicating method described above is the quickest one, you can also copy a Pattern
to the Pattern slot of your choice via the
mode, press and hold DUPLICATE, press the pad of the Pattern you want to copy, then press
the target pad for the Pattern copy. This procedure has following benefits:
▪ You can copy another Pattern than the one currently selected.
▪ You can paste the copy into the Pattern slot of your choice — empty or not. If the target
Pattern slot already contains a Pattern, it will be replaced by the copied Pattern.
▪ You can select the target slot in another Pattern Bank: After you have selected the source
Pattern, switch to the desired Pattern Bank using Buttons 5–8 before you select the target
Pattern slot.
▪ Last but not least, this command is also available outside the Pattern mode: Simply press
and hold DUPLICATE
selecting the source and target slots!
Please note that the copy-paste described here affects the Pattern as a whole. You can also
copy-paste particular events/notes within the Pattern or between Patterns. See
Copy and Paste Events/Notes
Removing a Clip from the Scene
Pressing Button 4 (REMOVE) in Pattern mode removes from the current Scene the Clip refer-
encing the selected Pattern (Clips and Scenes are described in detail at chapter
a Song using Scenes). Note that it does not delete the Pattern!
