Installation Manual

Note Repeat can also come in handy to quickly record a regular beat when creating Pat-
terns.
Note Repeat is also interesting to use with tonal Sounds and you can access it from Key-
board mode to create synthesizer-like arpeggios.
Note Repeat can only be enabled using the controller.
1. Check that your Pattern is playing — if not, press PLAY to start the sequencer.
2. Hold the NOTE REPEAT button.
3. While holding NOTE REPEAT, hold any pad.
The Sound of the pad is repeatedly triggered at the rate shown at the bottom of the con-
troller’s display.
4. While holding NOTE REPEAT, press Button 5, 6, 7 or 8 above the right display to select
another repetition rate.
This is a handy way to add live ornaments to your Pattern!
Of course you can also use Note Repeat to program your Pattern (e.g., recording a continuous hi-
hat).
3.5 Saving Your Project
A drum groove is an ideal starting point for the creation of a song. All the instruments you re-
cord afterwards will be based on the feeling of that rhythm. Before you get to adding new ele-
ments and editing your Pattern, you should save your work right away.
