Playing Patterns

Patterns are repeated melodic figures that you trigger from the
keyboard.
Press [patterns] near the control knob. To cycle through
different patterns, turn the control knob. The pattern will change,
with the current pattern name shown in the display.
The pattern continues playing as long as you hold down the key.

Using [latch]

Press [latch] to keep the tempo steady as you shift between notes.
Press [latch] again to stop the pattern from playing.

Using [tap]

Tap the [tap] button to increase or decrease the speed of the
pattern. To adjust the tempo with finer control, hold down [tap]
and turn the control knob. The display will indicate the precise
tempo.
