User Manual

The applied swing is not recorded in the Pattern Editor. For an overview of the signal
flow starting from your pads, have a look at the diagrams in section ↑5.5.1, Overview of
the Perform Features.
For example, when you play live beats on top of a running Pattern, you can use Note Repeat
without destroying the Pattern’s groove: the repeated notes will be processed using the same
swing parameters as the playing Pattern.
When the playback is not running, the swing is still applied to the output of Arp (Key-
board mode) or Note Repeat (Group mode). If you press PLAY on your controller, the
playback starts immediately and the swing cycle is reset.
5.6 Using Lock Snapshots
Lock allows you to create up to sixty-four snapshots spread across four banks of sixteen pads
providing a total of up to sixty-four snapshots. Each snapshot contains every modulatable pa-
rameter in your Project, including your Solo and Mute settings. Once created, you can use Ex-
tended Lock to switch between these instantly, or morph between them synchronized to the
tempo of your Project. Lock snapshots are a powerful tool for extensive modulations, but also
very useful to compare mixes, or to switch up snapshots during a live performance.
The Lock button is used to create and recall a single snapshot, and when used in addition with
Extended Lock, snapshots can be managed; allowing you to update them, clear unwanted
snapshots, and organize them exactly the way you want.
5.6.1 Creating a Lock Snapshot
Use the Lock button to capture, update or recall a single Lock snapshot.
When a snapshot is created it also updates the snapshot in focus within Extended Lock.
For more information on Extended Lock please read ↑5.6.2, Using Extended Lock.
