REDRUM

Creating an Empty Patch
To “initialize” the settings in the Redrum, select “Initialize Patch” from the Edit
menu or the device context menu. This removes all samples for all drum sound
channels, and sets all parameters to their default values.
Programming Patterns
About Pattern Selection
As described in the Getting Started book, each pattern device (such as the Re-
drum) has 32 pattern memories, divided into four banks. To select a pattern,
click a Pattern button (or, if the desired pattern is in another bank, first click the
Bank button and then click the Pattern button).
D If you select a new pattern during playback, the change will take ef-
fect on the next downbeat (according to the time signature set in
the transport panel).
If you automate pattern changes in the main sequencer, you can make them
happen at any position - see page 29.
D Note that you cannot load or save patterns - they are only stored as
part of a song.
However, you can move patterns from one location to another (even be-
tween songs) by using the Cut, Copy and Paste Pattern commands. This is
explained in the chapter “Using Pattern Devices” in the Getting Started
book.
Pattern Programming Basics
If you are unfamiliar with step programming patterns, the basic principle is very
intuitive and easy to learn. Proceed as follows:
1. Load a Redrum patch, if one isn’t already loaded.
2. Make sure an empty pattern is selected.
If you like, use the Clear Pattern command on the Edit menu or device con-
text menu to make sure.
3. Make sure that the “Enable Pattern Section” and the “Pattern” but-
tons are activated (lit).
4. Press the “Run” button.
There will be no sound, as no pattern steps have been recorded yet. But as
you can see, the LEDs over the Step button light up consecutively, moving
from left to right, and then starts over. Each Step button represents one
“step” in the Pattern.
