Step Sequencing With Ultrabeat
Ultrabeat’s step sequencer contains 24 sequences—each consisting of up to 32 steps.
The sequencer is divided into three sections.
 Global parameters: These parameters globally control the pattern and sounds,
independent of the individual steps and patterns.
 Pattern parameters: Control the currently selected pattern.
 Step Grid: Here, the actual sequencing takes place. A pattern of 32 steps is shown for
each sound. The pattern grid of the sound that is currently selected in the
Assignment section is shown. You can add or remove events to the grid by simply
clicking at the desired step position. Parameter values in the individual steps are
altered by grabbing and moving them with the mouse.
