Size parameter indicates the amount of RAM occupied by
the currently loaded samples. The Polyphony counter

Click on a pad for sound editing.
It turns light green and the display shows its sample parameters.
To adjust a parameter, either use one of the quick con-
trols below the display, or click on the parameter in the
display and adjust it by dragging your mouse.
You can select multiple pads for sound editing by [Ctrl]/
[Command]-clicking on them, and adjust their parameters
in one go with the quick controls below the display.
The first selected pad lights up light green, all other selected pads turn
dark green. The display shows the parameters of the first selected pad.
By default, the parameters of the selected samples are
adjusted in relation to their previous settings. If you want
to set a specific value for all selected samples, [Ctrl]/
[Command]-click the quick control to set an initial value,
release [Ctrl]/[Command] and adjust the value.
The parameter will be set to the same value for all selected sample pads.
On the Voice, Filter, and Amplifier pages, sample-specific
data is displayed:
Depending on the selected page (Play, Voice, Filter, Am-
plifier), up to six quick controls with different pad-specific
parameter assignments are displayed.

Layer indicator bar (this is the same as dropping a sample
on a pad). You can drag layers to a different position on
the bar.
