Chapter 14 Ultrabeat 379
Use the Ultrabeat parameter oset shortcut menu
m Control-click (or right-click) any step in the (parameter) oset row to open a shortcut menu, then
choose one of the following commands.
•
Alter: Changes the (selected) parameter values, for all steps, by a random amount.
•
Randomize: Creates a new, random value for the selected parameter.
Note: Consider saving your sequence/pattern before using either of the above commands.
•
Delete: Deletes all steps for the currently selected parameter.
Mute, solo, and reset Ultrabeat parameter osets
m Click the M(ute), S(olo), and Reset buttons in the parameter oset row.
•
M(ute): Mutes the osets of the selected parameter. This does not remove or reset
existing osets.
•
S(olo): Enables you to hear the eect of your osets on the selected parameter only.
•
Reset: All oset values for the selected parameter are set to zero (no oset). A second click on
the Reset button removes the parameter from the Parameter Oset menu.
Note: The Reset button at the left of the velocity/gate row changes to Delete when clicked
once. This Delete button mirrors the behavior of the Delete command: It deletes all steps for
the currently selected parameter.
Export Ultrabeat patterns as MIDI regions
Patterns programmed in Ultrabeat’s internal step sequencer can be exported as MIDI regions
into Logic Pro.
Export an Ultrabeat pattern into Logic Pro
1 Choose the pattern that you want to export from Ultrabeat’s Pattern pop-up menu.
2 Select the area to the left of the Pattern pop-up menu.
3 Drag the pattern to the target position on the respective Ultrabeat track.
A region is created containing all MIDI events, including Swing and Accent parameter settings.
Accents are interpreted as polyphonic pressure events. Step automation events, created in Step
mode, are also exported as part of the MIDI region.
Note: To avoid double-triggering while playing back the exported MIDI region, turn o
Ultrabeat’s step sequencer.
