playheads will not be reset to the Sample start positions in that case. All Samples will
start playing from the position where the Deck was stopped the next time you activate the
Remix Deck!
4. Let's start the Deck again by hitting pad A2.
5. Now hit the pad just below it on the same slot, pad A3. Notice there is a slight delay be-
fore the pad starts playing. This is because Quantize is on to ensure that your loops start
in sync with each other, according to the phrase (quantization length) that is set for them.
Only one pad (Sample Cell) can be playing at a time in a given Sample Slot!
3.4.3 Adjusting Quantization
To change the Remix Deck's Quantize Value, proceed as follows:
1. While the Remix Deck is still playing, push and hold the QUANT (EDIT) button. Now turn
the encoder knob until you get to the value "1" and then release the QUANT (EDIT) but-
ton. You have just set the Quantize Value to one beat.
2. Now hit some other pads. Notice that the change from one pad to the another happens
nearly immediately.
3. Push and hold the QUANT (EDIT) button again. This time, look at the Pad Matrix on the
F1. The first two rows of pads have transformed into eight differently-colored pads repre-
senting the same eight Quantize Values available on the encoder knob. Since you had pre-
viously chosen a Quantize Value of one (beat) with the encoder knob, the corresponding
pad (pad A3) should be more brightly lit than the others. While continuing to hold the
QUANT (EDIT) button, tap the third pad in the second slot (B3). The underlying Quantize
Value is sixteen beats. Release the QUANT (EDIT) button.
4. Now hit a pad that is not currently playing. Notice that — depending where you are in the
phrase — it can now take up to sixteen beats for the new pad to start playing once you've
hit it. During this time, it will flash to show you that it is "next in line" for playback.
