► Press the desired pad to select the Pattern you want to use in that Scene.
→ If  you  have  pressed  a  dim  lit  pad,  a  Pattern  is  inserted  into  the  selected  Scene.  If  you
have pressed an unlit pad, a new empty Pattern is automatically created in the selected
Scene. In both cases, any Pattern previously existing for that Group in the Scene will be
replaced.
Furthermore, the following happens:
▪ In the Arranger (Ideas view and Song view) the Pattern displays the name and color of the
Pattern.
▪ The corresponding Pattern will now be played by that Scene.
▪ Additionally this Pattern is loaded in the Pattern Editor, ready to be modified.
For further  information  regarding  the  Pattern  mode,  please  refer  to  section  ↑11.7,  Managing  Pat-
