THE SEQUENCER
25
types of tracks. Parameter locks can be removed by either performing a clear locks command, covered in sec-
tion “COPY, PASTE AND CLEAR OPERATIONS” on page 28, or by simply removing the trig and entering it
again.
To apply parameter locks in GRID RECORDING mode, press and hold the [TRIG] key of a trig. Adjust the
parameters you want to lock using the DATA ENTRY knobs. The graphics in LCD will become inverted for the
locked parameter and the locked parameter value will be displayed. The <TRIG> LED of the locked trig will
begin to flash rapidly, indicating the trig now contains a parameter lock. 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, turning a DATA ENTRY knob will input parameter locks to the active track. Note
trigs will be locked accordingly and trigless locks containing the locks will be placed on the sequencer steps not
containing note trigs.
To remove the parameter locks of all tracks while LIVE RECORDING mode is active, press and hold [FUNC-
TION] + [NO/RELOAD]. Sound locks will however not be erased. Remove specific parameter locks in real time
by pressing [NO/RELOAD] while pressing the DATA ENTRY knob corresponding to the parameter that should
be removed.
• Up to 128 different parameters can be locked in a pattern. A parameter counts as one (1) locked
parameter no matter how many trigs that lock it. If for example the cutoff parameter of the ladder
filter of synth track 1 is locked on every sequencer step, there are still 127 other parameters that
can be locked.
SOUND LOCKS
Sounds can be changed per sequencer step, which is an immensely useful feature for adding variations to a
track. Press and hold a note trig and turn the LEVEL knob. The list of saved Sounds will appear. Scroll the list
using the LEVEL knob, select the Sound you want to assign to the note trig and then release the [TRIG] key.
The <TRIG> LED will start to flash. Pressing and holding the [TRIG] key of the note trig will show the assigned
Sound.
TRIG MUTE
The TRIG MUTE menu makes it possible to add mute masks on a per trig basis. Each track can have its own
trig mute trigs. Open the menu by pressing [FUNCTION] + [BANK A/E].
Select the track to which you want to add trig mute trigs by pressing the corresponding [TRACK] key. While in
the TRIG MUTE menu, entered trigs will mute any trigs placed of the active track, given the trigs are located on
the same sequencer steps.
• Trig mutes can be quickly added to note trigs or trigless locks. Keep the note trig or trigless lock
pressed and press [BANK A/E]. A trig mute trig will automatically be placed on the same
sequencer step as the note trig/trigless lock.
• Press a note trig/trigless lock to quickly see if a trig mute trig is placed on the same sequencer
step as the trig. If that is the case, the <BANK A/E> LED will light up.
• Trig mutes are good for experimenting with the feel of tracks when playing live. The last eight
steps of a bass line track could for example be muted to build suspense.
