● Random
Generative: Each stage choice is totally random. The choice of which stage to play next is made
each time a stage completes, and is selected from the pool of active stages (that is, the number
of stages set in the LENGTH screen, plus any Stage Offset applied).
For example, if you had a 3 stage sequence, the first stage to play could be 1, 2, or 3; the next
stage could be 1, 2 or 3; the next could be 1, 2 or 3; etc. Note that this is not the same as
playing the pool of stages in random order, since every stage has an equal chance of being the
next stage in the sequence, meaning stages can (and will) repeat.
Because every stage is randomly selected, sequences do not cycle and do not automatically
reset.
In Use:
1. Press the TRK 1, TRK 2 or MOD button, depending on the track whose order you wish to edit.

the ORDER button and short-pressing the desired Stage button.
