Pad Bank Section

Sequences are shown with their names; unused Sequences are
shown as (unused). The selected pad will be green.
During playback, change the next Sequence by clicking and
holding the corresponding pad until the current Sequence ends. If
no other Sequence is selected, the software will repeat the current
Sequence indefinitely.
