● If PULSES is set to "Auto" then a sequence is of indefinite length. The sequence progresses
through the selected number of STAGES, following the chosen playback ORDER, and using the
full PULSE COUNT of each stage. Even with an immutable stage count, the sequence length
can vary with changes to the playback ORDER and per-stage PULSE COUNT. Therefore, in this
situation, a sequence is reset only when you press the RESET button, or send a trigger into the
RESET jack.
In Use:
1.
Press the TRK 1, TRK 2 or MOD button corresponding to the track whose sequence length you
wish to edit.
2.
Press the LEN button to access the LENGTH screen.
3.
Press the encoder to toggle between editing the STAGES field and the PULSES field.
4.
With the
indicator beside the STAGES parameter, turn the encoder to adjust the number of
stages in the track.
SHORTCUT: With the STAGES field active, hold down the LEN button and press one of the eight
stage buttons to set the number of stages directly.
5.
With the
indicator beneath the PULSES parameter, turn the encoder to adjust the number of
pulses in the track (Auto, 1-64).
SHORTCUT: With the PULSES parameter active, hold down the LEN button and press one of
the eight stage buttons to enter the number of pulses (adding 8 pulses per each stage button).
6.
To set a Stage Offset, hold down the ALT button and turn the encoder.
Without a Stage Offset, a sequence always resets back to using Stage 1 as the "first stage" in
the pool. Applying a Stage Offset lets you define which of the 8 stages is considered the "first
stage" when a sequence is reset.
7.
To reset all LENGTH parameters back to their default values, long-press the encoder.
