1.2.3. Roller/Looper

The touch strip has two modes: "Roller" and "Looper". You can toggle quickly between the two
modes by holding the Shift button and pressing Step button 9 while in Control mode.
The Looper repeats a section of the combined output of the sequencers (i.e., the
Project). The loop starts when you press the touch strip, and the loop size is
based on the location of your finger on the strip.
The Roller works differently depending on which mode you are in:

1.2.4. Swing/Randomness/Probability

Swing introduces a "shuffle" feel to the sequences. It can affect the entire Project (all three
sequencers at once) or only the selected sequencer, leaving the others untouched.
Randomness and Probability introduce increasing amounts of unpredictability to the
sequences. As with the Swing setting, these controls can affect the entire Project (all three
sequencers at once) or only the current sequencer, leaving the others untouched.
For more details on all three features, see

DRUM/Control mode: Repeats the note of the pads you press, at the
rate you select with the strip. This will override the drum track for the
pads that are being rolled, but the others will continue to play.
SEQ1/SEQ2: Overrides the sequence and becomes an arpeggiator
that follows which pads you press and the order in which you press
them. The arpeggiator rate is determined by where your finger is on
the touch strip.
