Quantization while recording and playing
You can also choose to have notes automatically quantized. Enter Input Mode by pressing
PAD MODE (KEYBOARD). Using Knob 1 you can now choose when quantization should be
performed: Record (only when recording), Rec/Play (when recording and when playing) or
None, meaning no quantization will be performed. When Input Quantization is set to Record,
the selected quantization value will automatically be applied to the Pattern on its next cycle.
When it is set to Play/Rec, your playing is quantized in real time.
6.2 Editing Patterns
6.2.1 Selecting notes and events
You can select particular notes and events from your Hardware. To do this, hold SELECT and
press Button 2 (EVENTS). While further holding SELECT, you can now select notes and events
of Sounds using their Pads. The notes and events of every additional Sound you select using the
Pads will be added to the selection. If you press a Pad again, the events of the Sound will be
removed from the selection. Selecting specic Sounds and their events is useful because many
of the operations described below can be applied to the selection instead of the entire Pattern.
The Select screen for notes and events on the hardware displays
all
Press SELECT+Button 3 (ALL) to select all events of the
selected Sound.
nonE
Press SELECT+Button 4 (NONE) to deselect all events of
the selected Sound.
Up/down
While holding SELECT, use Buttons 5 (UP) and 6 (DOWN)
to choose the Sound of which you want to select notes and
events. Alternatively you can select Sounds using the Pads.
