▌ PLAYING A PATTERN FROM THE PATTERN OR ANY GENERIC PAGE.
1. Ensure a project with patterns is loaded.
2. Although not essential, it is usually good practice to display the pattern
page at this stage. If required, Press Function [1] to display the pattern
page, this button is assigned as default. Pattern page can also be
selected in the [Menu] options.
3. Press [Play] to play the currently active pattern. Note that this process
will only play and loop the currently selected pattern and not the entire
song, unless the Song page is on display when pressing [Play].
4. Press [Play] to stop playback on the current step.
• Pressing [Play] again restarts from the pattern beginning.
• Pressing [Shift] + [Play] will restart playback from the current
paused position.
• Press [Shift] + [Insert] when play is stopped to reset the playhead to
the start position without commencing play.

previously been created. Songs are typically setup in factory projects.

Song page is different to the generic pattern play from within other page
views. Each row will represent a series of patterns across the 8 tracks
and will play the rows top to bottom.
