3.6. Live performance features
Many of the same playback options are available for Song mode that are found in Pattern
mode. There are some differences, so we’ll point those out when we get to them.
Some of the performance features are what we call “song-level” features, and others are
“pattern-level”. Here’s a description of each:
•
Song-level
features are not affected when the song loops or when patterns shift
banks within the song.
•
Pattern-level
features are embedded in the patterns, so when these patterns are
recalled during playback they might be reset to their stored values. They also will
be reset if the song is stopped and restarted.
3.6.1. Song-level features
3.6.1.1. Output Filter
The filter controls are always active. Choose between the High Pass and Low Pass filters
with the HPF button, set Resonance to the desired level, and sweep the filter frequency with
the Cutoff knob.
To toggle the filter on and off, press the Bypass button.
3.6.1.2. The Looper/Roller Strip
While using the Looper/Roller strip the Song continues to play in background so when you
release the touch strip it will jump to the position it would have been if you didn’t use the
Looper/Roller.
The Looper strip will generate smaller loops based on where you touch the strip and when
you do it. The length of the loop is determined by the position of your finger on the strip.
Changing the location of your finger changes the size of the loop.
The Roller strip allows you to roll instruments in real time. It will generate rolls based on the
time division selected within the touch strip area.
3.6.1.3. Pause or Restart
There’s a setting called Pause mode in the MIDI Control Center. It lets you decide if the Play/
Pause button will restart the song from the beginning or continue from the current position
when you resume playback.
See
section [p.71]
to learn more about these MIDI Control Center settings.
