→ The Pattern is copied to the target pad. The target pad starts flashing and you can further
copy/paste it to other slots!
This procedure has following benefits:
▪ You can paste the copy into the Pattern slot of your choice — empty or not. If the target
Pattern slot already contains a Pattern, it will be replaced by the copied Pattern.
▪ You can select the target slot in another Pattern bank: After you have selected the source
Pattern, switch to the desired Pattern bank using Buttons 7 and 8 before you select the
target Pattern slot.
▪ Last but not least, this command is also available outside the Pattern mode: Simply press
and hold DUPLICATE + PATTERN (instead of DUPLICATE alone in Pattern mode) before
selecting the source and target slots!
Please note that the copy-paste described here affects the Pattern as a whole. You can also copy-
paste particular events within the Pattern or between Patterns. See ↑11.4.4, Editing Selected
Events/Notes for more on this.
11.7.9 Moving Patterns
You can reorder Patterns via drag and drop in the software. It can be helpful to organize your
Patterns more conveniently (e.g., to bring together variations of the same rhythm).
To move Patterns:
1. Open the Pattern Manager (see ↑11.7.1, The Pattern Manager and Pattern Mode).
2. If necessary, select the Pattern bank containing the desired Pattern by clicking its pad
grid on the right.
The selected Pattern bank is surrounded by a white border and its Patterns appear in the
list on the left.
3. Click and hold the Pattern slot or the corresponding cell in the pad grid.
