Copy Pattern to Track
This menu item is used for the Redrum drum machine and Matrix pattern sequencer. It
converts the selected pattern to notes on a sequencer track. Proceed as follows:
1. Select a sequencer track connected to the Redrum/Matrix.
2. Set the left and right locators to the desired range or length.
If the range set is longer than the pattern(s), the data will be repeated to fit the
range.
3. Select the pattern device, so that it has the focus.
4. Pull down the Edit menu and select “Copy Pattern to Track”.
Notes will be created between the left and right locators, according to the se-
lected pattern.
! When copying Matrix patterns, only the Gate and Keys values will be in-
cluded!
D If you copied a Redrum pattern, you may want to turn off the “Enable Pat-
tern Section” before playing back the new track data.
Otherwise, both the main sequencer and the pattern sequencer will play the drum
sounds, simultaneously.
D If you copied a Matrix pattern, you need to connect the track to an instru-
ment device (such as the device which was originally controlled by the
Matrix), since the Matrix in itself doesn’t produce any sound.
Furthermore, you may want to disconnect the Matrix (or even remove it), to avoid
having both the Matrix and the sequencer notes playing at the same time.
Shift Pattern Left/Right
These menu items are used for the Redrum and Matrix respectively.
The Shift Pattern functions move the notes in a pattern one step to the left or right.
Shift Drum Left/Right
These menu items are used for the Redrum.
The Shift Drum functions move the notes for the selected instrument one step to the
left or right.
Shift Pattern Up/Down
These menu items are used for the Matrix.
The Shift Pattern functions will transpose all the notes in a pattern one semitone up or
down.
! This function does not alter the Curve CV.
Randomize Pattern
This menu item is used for the Redrum and Matrix.
The Randomize Pattern function create random patterns. These can often be great
starting points and help you get new ideas.
! Note that for the Matrix, Randomize affects both the Gate, Note and
Curve CV!
Randomize Drum
The Randomize Drum functions creates random patterns for the selected drum sound
channel in the Redrum drum machine.
Alter Pattern
This menu item is used for the Redrum and Matrix.
The Alter Pattern function modifies existing patterns. Note that there must be some-
thing in the pattern for the function to work on - using an Alter function on an empty
pattern will not do anything.
! Note that for the Matrix, Alter affects both the Gate, Note and Curve CV!
Alter Drum
The Alter Pattern function modifies existing patterns for the selected drum sound.
Note that there must be something in the pattern for that channel for the function to
work - using an Alter function on an empty pattern will not do anything.
Auto-route Device
Auto-routing is when devices’ audio and CV/gate connections are automatically
routed according to default rules. Auto-routing is normally performed when:
•A new device is created.
• Moving, duplicating or pasting devices with [Shift] pressed.
However, if a device is already in the rack, you can “force” it to be auto-routed by se-
lecting it and then select this menu item.
For more information about auto-routing rules, see page 35.
Disconnect Device
This disconnects all audio and CV/gate connections from the selected device(s).
Duplicate Track
This creates a copy of the selected track, complete with all events. The duplicated
track will appear below the original track in the track list.
