all). The submenu "Velocity presets" contains some help functions for
programming of the velocity row.

You can easily create complex and authentic jungle break beat
sounds. In a professional recording studio, jungle break beats are
created by dividing any given drum loop into several small "bits" and
putting them back together in a different order. This lengthy process
is significantly simplified by the Drum & Bass machine. You just have
to design your own new play sequence.
You set up the new sequence in the top ("steps") row. The blue cells
indicate the individual sections ("notes") for the subdivision of the
loop.
A left mouse click on one of the blue cells allows you to select one of
six possible symbols. Each symbol represents a different note or
other way of playing the note. Every time you click on one of the blue
cells, the next symbol is chosen.
Rely on your own intuition and creativity when programming your
beats. It is not absolutely necessary to know the exact meaning of
each individual symbol in order to create cool and authentic beats.
Summary symbol description:
1: Play drum loop from beginning
2: Play drum loop from the second note
3: Play drum loop from the third note
4: Play drum loop from the fourth note
Backward symbol: Play backwards from this point
Stop symbol: Stops play
The right mouse button allows you to delete the step cells
individually. The "Clear" button on the right deletes all step cells; the
drum loop is played in its original sequence. The "Random rhythm"
button generates a random sequence. You can then alter the rhythm
as you wish.
By clicking on the blue field in the bottom part of the rhythm section
you open a pop-up menu where you can select the drum loop sound.
If you select a different drum loop, it will be loaded and played as
programmed by you.
