About this tutorial
In this tutorial we will go through the following basic procedures:
• How to browse for a specific type of patch.
• How to record notes in the sequencer.
• How to copy a clip in the sequencer.
D This tutorial assumes that you have followed the previous tutorial(s).
You should have a song open, containing a mixer device and a Redrum device with the drum pattern
you programmed in the previous tutorial. If you kept the same song open for all tutorials you also have
a Subtractor device.
If you saved the previous tutorial and closed it, select “Open” from the File menu, navigate to the saved
song and open it.
Browsing for a bass sound
Browsing for a patch was covered in the previous tutorials.
In this instance we will use “cross-browsing” which means you can browse and audition patches for all In-
struments, regardless of whether the instrument exists in the current song or not. In addition, we will
browse for a specific type of patch; a synth bass sound.
It doesn’t matter what track is selected when you use this feature, you will automatically get Master Key-
board Input when cross-browsing.
It works as follows:
1. Select “Create Instrument...” from the Create menu or use the corresponding button at
the top of the Tool window - Device Palette page.
2. Double-click the “All Instrument Patches” folder in the browse list
The browser will show all instrument patches divided into category folders.
