TRIG SETUP
Press [TRIG SETUP] in order to specify the trig actions
for the active track: activate/deactivate the Synth part or
the Sample part of the track Sound, for example. Use the
DATA ENTRY knobs to change settings.
GRID RECORDING MODE
GRID RECORDING is a method of composing where trigs
are added by using the [TRIG] keys.
1 Enter GRID RECORDING mode by pressing the [REC]
key. A lit red <REC> LED indicates GRID RECORDING mode is active.
2 Select the track to which you want to add trigs by pressing and holding [TRACK] and then one of the [PADS]. This is
now the active track, shown by one of the <PADS> glowing red.
3 Place note trigs on the sequencer using the 16 [TRIG] keys. To add a trigless lock, press [FUNCTION] and [TRIG] (see
PARAMETER LOCKS below). Trigless locks may be entered on any step of the sequencer, including ones containing
note trigs. Quickly pressing the [TRIG] key of any of the trigs entered will remove the trig. Pressing a [TRIG] key of
a trig and holding it slightly longer will prepare the trig for editing, rather than removing it.
4 Select another track, and add note trigs and/or trigless locks. Repeat the procedure for all the tracks you want to use.
5 Press [PLAY] to listen to the sequence.
LIVE RECORDING MODE
LIVE RECORDING mode is the second method of adding trigs to the tracks. In this recording mode, all the [PADS] are
played in real time to input trigs to the tracks. It is also possible to enter parameter locks in real time.
1 Press and hold [RECORD], then press [PLAY] to enter LIVE RECORDING mode. Quickly pressing [PLAY] twice while
keeping the [RECORD] key pressed will activate/deactivate quantization of LIVE RECORDING. The sequencer will start
to play and the <RECORD> LED will start to flash.
2 Enter trigs to all tracks of the sequencer in real time by tapping the [PADS].
3 Press [PLAY] to exit LIVE RECORDING mode while keeping the sequencer playing. If LIVE RECORDING mode is active
and [REC] is pressed, GRID RECORDING mode will be activated.
4 Press [STOP] to stop both the recording and the playback of the sequencer.
SEQUENCER FEATURES
PARAMETER LOCKS
Parameter locks allow trigs to have their own unique parameter values. All note trigs of a track may, for instance, have
different pitch or filter settings. Parameter locks can be applied to any type of track.
1 In GRID RECORDING mode, press and hold the [TRIG] key of a trig to apply parameter locks.
2 Adjust the parameters you want to lock using the DATA ENTRY knobs. The graphics on the LCD will become in-
verted for the locked parameter and the locked parameter value will be shown. The <TRIG> LED of the locked trig will
begin to flash, signalling that the trig now contains a parameter lock.
3 Remove a single parameter lock by holding [TRIG] + pressing the DATA ENTRY knob of the locked parameter. By
removing a note trig and entering it again, all parameter locks will be erased from the trig.
In LIVE RECORDING mode, turn a DATA ENTRY knob to input parameter locks to the active track. The parameter will be
locked accordingly and placed on the sequencer steps.
