Random Mode

The Random Mode is assigned to layers 8 — 11.
Random Mode Operation
If you press an LED button long enough to enter an active note in the Random Mode, the
active note will play back repeatedly. If you then enter a few more active notes, the lights will
"travel" from note to note, in the order entered, and the active notes will sound when the
traveling light passes over them. The Random Mode thus produces a totally different type of
loop from the Score Mode.
[Reference]
The next active note will play at the specified 1-beat timing. The length of each beat can be adjusted via the
Loop Speed parameter (Loop Speed
You can even spin loop-shapes you create in the Random Mode by holding the [L4] button
and running a finger around the matrix in the direction and at the speed of the desired spin.
The pitches of the notes will change accordingly as the shape spins, producing loop sound
effects.

As in the Score Mode the factory default scale for the vertical axis is an ionian scale,
corresponding to the white keys on a piano. Nothing is assigned to the horizontal axis, but
the timing between notes will depend on the distance between the notes on the matrix.
